Figure 4From: Discovery of barley miRNAs through deep sequencing of short readsThe alignment of reads to the miR169j precursor region in rice is shown. Note that the known miRNA and miRNA* (P51WP5129 and P51WP15206, respectively) are distinctive in being among the most abundant reads, while not a single read in the dataset aligns to the region excised by DCL1. Only perfect matches are shown, but reads with up to three mismatches were allowed and merely add to the two expressed regions.Back to article page
