From: A systematic analysis of the skeletal muscle miRNA transcriptome of chicken varieties with divergent skeletal muscle growth identifies novel miRNAs and differentially expressed miRNAs

Figure 4

miRNAs differentially expressed in the skeletal muscles of broilers and layers. A. Venn diagram demonstrating the overlap of original sequenced reads between broilers and layers. B. Venn diagram demonstrating the overlap of sequenced reads with perfect genomic matches in broilers and layers. C. Heat-map of miRNAs differentially expressed in broilers and layers based on the read counts obtained by deep sequencing. D. Heat-map of differentially expressed miRNAs confirmed by microarrays. Triplicate samples of total RNA from the skeletal muscle of E10 broilers and layers were used to perform miRNA microarray experiments. B, broiler chicken; L, layer chicken.
