Additional file 9: Figure S3. of Genome-wide identification of potato long intergenic noncoding RNAs responsive to Pectobacterium carotovorum subspecies brasiliense infection

RT-qPCR confirmation of five potato defense-related miRNAs in S. tuberosum cv BP1, computationally predicted to target some of the lincRNA transcripts. U6 snRNA was used as the reference gene. The fold changes of miRNAs at each time point were calculated relative to calibrator (control sample; 0 hpi). The experiments were done in triplicate. Error bars represent the fold change range calculated by 2-(ΔΔCt±SD). (PDF 86 kb)
