Relationship between miRNA density, mRNA decay rate, and the number of miRNA binding sites. (a) Variation of mRNA decay rates for 5 miRNA density groups with increasing miRNA density. The degree of the increasing trend for mRNA decay rates along with the increasing miRNA density was estimated by Wilcoxon rank sum tests and depicted in p-values. (b) Variation of miRNA density for 5 mRNA decay rate groups with increasing decay rate values. (c) Variation of miRNA binding site number for 5 miRNA density groups with increasing density values. The degree of the increasing trend for miRNA binding site number along with the increasing miRNA density was estimated by Wilcoxon rank sum tests and depicted in p-values. (d) Variation of miRNA density for 5 miRNA binding site groups with increasing number of binding sites. The degree of the increasing trend for miRNA density along with the increasing number of miRNA binding sites was estimated by Wilcoxon rank sum tests and depicted in p-values.
