Function annotation of miRNA and degraded targets. Degraded DE genes were annotated to be involved in nearly all differentially expressed pathways (a). Moreover, the DE degraded genes significantly enriched in 19 pathways (b). Among the opposite expressed miRNAs and targets, there were six miRNAs and six degraded targets found to have the most targets and be targeted respectively (c). The DE miRNAs and their DE targets mostly enriched in 5 pathways, including “Plant-Pathogen Interaction”, “Plant Hormone signaling transduction”, “Ascorbate and aldarate metabolism”, “Starch and sucrose metabolism” and “Aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis”. FC was short for foldchange
