Fig. 10: Expression levels of cis MIRNAs and their trans targets.
From: Dosage-sensitive miRNAs trigger modulation of gene expression during genomic imbalance in maize
The cis location of each MIRNA or each target is depicted within parentheses. “Other” refers to genes that do not fall in the cis region of any B–A translocation line. The x-axis refers to the dosage of the chromosomal region as noted in the bottom-left corner of each panel, whereas the y-axis designates the expression level (rpm) of each MIRNA in cis or each target in trans (normalized read counts) corresponding to the genotype on the x-axis. Correlations between cis MIRNAs (blue background panel) and their targets (white background panel below each MIRNA) were predicted by psRNATarget (yellow circled 1) or gathered from degradome sequencing data from other studies (blue circled 2). R Pearson correlation coefficient between expression levels of MIRNA and its corresponding target. P values for Pearson correlation (two-sided; confidence intervals, 95%; no adjustment made for multiple comparisons): *P value < 0.05; **P value < 0.01 (exact P values shown in Supplementary Data 7, 8). a Example MIRNA that targets SBP domain TFs. b Example MIRNAs that target GRAS domain TFs. c Example MIRNA that targets ethylene‐responsive TFs. d Example MIRNA that targets a mitochondrial-targeted gene Zm00004b040287 (ZmMORF3). Source data are provided in Supplementary Data 7, 8.
