Figure 9

Number of miRNAs with significantly genetic and environmental robustness at FDR-controlled P -values of < 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, and 0.001. 2D histogram plots of the number of miRNAs with significantly genetic and environmental robustness. Each bar is constituted with an outer hollow sub-bar and an inner solid sub-bar, which represents the number of significantly robust real pre-miRNAs compared with random/shuffled sequences and random/shuffled pseudo pre-miRNAs, respectively.
