Molecular interaction, pathway and differential expression analyses of osa-miR397a/b, osa-miR398b, osa-miR408-5p and osa-miR528-5p between control and drought stress in the leaf tissue of different rice varieties. a This diagram shows, in the leaf of drought-tolerant rice varieties, drought suppresses the expression of these miRNAs, which in turn may collectively induce their previously validated copper-containing proteins. The opposite regulation happens in the leaf of drought-susceptible rice variety based on our Illumina sequencing data. b Normalized fold change (2-∆∆Ct) of four real time PCR validated genes with U6 snRNA as reference gene. Mean of triplicates of the normalized fold change of a qPCR validated gene is represented by a bar while the standard deviation of the triplicates is represented by an error bar. c Illumina sequencing data. Expression of control and drought stress was normalized on the basis of 1 M reads. Instead of |log2 fold change|, the normalized fold change is shown here for comparison with qPCR results
