Exploring Heat-Response Mechanisms of MicroRNAs Based on Microarray Data of Rice Post-meiosis Panicle

Figure 2

Classification of DE-miRNAs in rice under the heat stress. (a) The length distribution of 124 DE-miRNA sequences. (b) Bipartite network visualization of the regulatory relationship between DE-miRNA families and heat stress in rice. The links between heat stress and miRNA families indicate involvements between miRNA families in the regulation of heat response. The solid red, green, and yellow circles denote upregulated, downregulated, and up-/downregulated expression patterns of miRNA families under the heat stress, respectively.
