Tools to predict microRNAs in Ascomycota(Fungus)

I have sequenced data from a few species of Ascomycota. I have degradome sequencing, smallRNA sequencing and whole transcriptome sequencing data from these species of Ascomycota. I want to predict microRNA in these species, and was wondering if there is any tool or method I can follow to predict miRNA using the datasets I have. I have already tried Cleaveland4, but wanted to try other tools as well. Any suggestion?

smallrna rna-seq microrna

Hi MAPK, given that you already received help for your question from a user, it is not appropriate nor necessary to delete your post. Therefore, I re-opened it.

mirDeep works fine, but do not use it until you have read and understand the manual and protocol to predict new miRNAs. Small RNAs are not miRNAs by default.
