The abbreviation of the animal names used for miRNA nomenclature: Worm (Caenorhabditis elegans, cel); Fly (Drosophila melanogaster, dme); Common carp (Cyprinus carpio, ccr); Zebrafish (Danio rerio, dre); Channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus, ipu); Frog (Xenopus tropicalis, xtr); Mouse (Mus musculus, mmu); Chicken (Gallus gallus, gga); Human (Homo sapiens, hsa); ccr read represents mRNA read count in the liver of the common carp control sample. The miRNAs in bold represent high abundant expression ones.
