Detecting the Candidate Gender Determinants by Bioinformatic Prediction of miRNAs and Their Targets from Transcriptome Sequences of the Male and Female Flowers in Salix suchowensis

Figure 2

Distribution of miRNA targets on 19 chromosomes of S. suchowensis. Thirty target genes regulated by miRNAs commonly presented in both the female and the male flower buds are shown with blue, whereas 17 and 84 genes regulated by miRNAs presented exclusively in the female or the male are shown with red and green, respectively. In addition, the yellow block in chromosome XV represents gender locus in sex chromosome of S. suchowensis.
