Expression pattern of grass carp-specific miRNAs. A Tissue distribution of miRNAs.The first is a Venn diagram of the number of miRNAs in the six tissues. The second one indicates the histogram of miRNAs contained in each tissue. The third one displays the number of miRNAs located in intersections of a specific size. In the third chart, 327 miRNAs are specific to one tissue, and 107 miRNAs are shared by two of the six lists. A miRNA is defined as expressed in a tissue if its reads count in this tissue is greater than 3. B MiRNA expression levels with different tissue shown as normalized read counts. C Common miRNAs show significantly higher expression than specific miRNAs. D Tissue-specific miRNAs expression. E MiRNAs tissue specificities in each group among the six species. Specific miRNAs gain high tissue specificities, while common miRNAs gain low tissue specificities. The tissue specificities were calculated based on each miRNA's fluctuations in expression levels
