The present teachings provide novel methods for amplifying short nucleic acids. In some embodiments, the present teachings provide novel methods for linearly amplifying a collection of micro RNAs by using temperature cycling during a reverse transcription reaction. The cycling can comprise at least 20 cycles of an annealing temperature segment of 10° C.-30° C., and a denaturation temperature segment of 35° C.-60° C. In some embodiments, the temperature cycled reaction can comprise an osmolyte. |
