Figure 4From: Evolutionary conserved microRNAs are ubiquitously expressed compared to tick-specific miRNAs in the cattle tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplusClustering of tick samples based on their miRNA expression profiles. MiRNA counts for each miRNA locus were normalized as reads per million and then log transformed prior to conducting hierarchical clustering as described by Eisen et al. [48]. Novel tick-specific miRNAs are denoted in blue fonts.Back to article page
