Fig 2. Size distribution of viral small RNA (vsRNA) reads in persistently and pathogenically BmCPV-infected midgut tissue.

Fig 2

Graphs represent read counts that match to the positive or negative strand of BmCPV in persistently and pathogenically infected midguts of 2nd and 4th instar larvae. Numbers of reads (counts) are plotted against the length of the vsRNAs. A clear peak of 20 nt is observed in all samples. Please note also the differences in read counts between persistently (150–200 scale) and pathogenically infected samples (3 x 105–1 x 106 scale).
