Statistical significance of the negative correlations between the expression levels of miRNAs and mRNAs in the same MTBs. The p-values were computed based on the expressed union sets with TarBase interactions, for (a) the high-confidence set and (b) the high-coverage set as compared to a random background sampled from all expressed mRNAs and miRNAs; and (c) the high-confidence set and (d) the high-coverage set as compared to a background consisting of miRNA-mRNA pairs with interactions in the input network but are not in same MTBs. In the figures, 1E-16 represents the smallest p-value that could be outputted by our program. MTB types with no identified MTBs are omitted.
