Figure 2

Differential expression of putative conserved miRNAs between control and salt-stressed broccoli. (A) Scatter diagram of the differential read counts of known miRNAs. Each point in the figure represents a miRNA. Red points represent miRNAs showing a > 2-fold change of expression; blue points represent miRNAs showing 1/2 < fold change ≤ 2; green points represent miRNAs showing a fold change ≤ 1/2. (B) The 45 miRNAs showing the greatest changes in expression, with fold changes < 1/2 or > 2. Decreased (C) and increased (D) putative conserved miRNAs confirmed by stem-loop real-time RT-PCR, as described in Methods. Significant difference between salt-stressed broccoli and control broccoli is indicated by *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01.
