Changes in the expression of sma-miR6 and sma-miR7 in the test plants in response to their exposure to 255 mM NaCl (O. sativa cv. Badami/Pokkali) or 340 mM NaCl (S. maritima) for 9 h. The bars for the individual miRNAs represent fold changes in their expression in the three test plants in response to NaCl treatment relative to the mean expression level in the control plants. The data are the mean ± SD of six independent estimations for S. maritima and 3 independent estimations for the other plants. Variations in the expression of the individual miRNAs in the four plants resulting from NaCl treatment were statistically analyzed with an ‘F’ test and Duncan’s multiple range test. The mean fold change in the expression of an miRNA (bars) of individual species marked with at least one common letter do not differ significantly at p ≤ 0.05
