The miRNA–mRNA interaction networks containing eleven lipid metabolism or deposition related pathways. The dot indicates miRNA, and the box indicates a target gene that had a negative correlation with a given miRNA. Red indicates up-regulated, green indicates down-regulated, and yellow indicates a miRNA that was up-regulated in a given comparison combination and was down-regulated in other comparison combinations. The eleven pathways are fatty acid degradation, fatty acid metabolism, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, alpha-linolenic acid metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis, arachidonic acid metabolism, fatty acid elongation, glycerophospholipid metabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, the adipocytokine signaling pathway and the PPAR signaling pathway. The miRNA–mRNA pairs in each pathway are shown in Additional file 9: Table S3
