From: Expansion of ruminant-specific microRNAs shapes target gene expression divergence between ruminant and non-ruminant species

Figure 3

The distribution of normalized divergence rates of miRNA target sites. Density plots of the normalized target site divergence rates between cattle and human for cattle-specific (blue line) and non-cattle-specific miRNAs (red line). The targets of the cattle-specific miRNAs show a greater normalized divergence rate than the targets of the non-cattle-specific miRNAs (p = 2.2e-16, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test).
