Patterns of changing expression of mRNA and miR transcripts between breeding and nonbreeding conditions. Expression data were converted to z-scores for each mRNA or miR. Thus colors represent up (red) or down (blue) regulation of a miR or mRNA in a particular sample, as compared to the mean expression for that gene. a The relative expression of mRNAs that were differentially regulated in at least one experimental group (i.e. LD + T 3D, 7D, 21, or LDW) compared to SD. A p-value of <0.0001 and a fold change >2.0 were used as the threshold for inclusion. b Relative expression of miRs that were differentially regulated in at least one experimental group with a fold change >2.0 and p < 0.0005 compared to SD. miRs of interest based on predicted function or miRs specific to birds are denoted
