Figure 4. Small RNA from protein-coding gene and pseudogene loci in P. infestans.
(A) Heatmap-based size profile of 18-30-nucleotide small RNA reads mapping to 1,166 P. infestans genes that overlapped at least 100 total small RNA reads. Gene annotation groups with at least four genes are labeled with alternating black and gray boxes. (B and C) Regional metaplots with average 18-27-nucleotide small RNA reads per position. X-axis positions are relative scale (0–100%) for each region. Genes from (A) with more 24-30- than 18-23-nucleotide small RNA reads, LTR retrotransposons and transposons are shown (B). Genes from (A) with more 18-23- than 24-30-nucleotide small RNA reads, crinklers and type III fibronectins are shown (C).
