Fig. 2From: Comparative analysis of miRNA expression during the development of insects of different metamorphosis modes and germ-band typesExpression of B. germanica miRNAs over ontogeny. a Heat map showing the expression of the newly found miRNAs. b Heat map showing the expression of the conserved miRNAs. The abbreviations of the stages are explained in Table 1. c Variation of the expression in conserved and specific miRNAs. The asterisk indicates statistically significant differences between the two samples (Welch’s t-test, p < 0.01)Back to article page
