Expression and temperature responsiveness of miRNAs in banana. a Venn diagram showing the number of common and specific miRNAs responding to cold or heat stress. The circular and square areas represented cold- and heat-responsive miRNAs, respectively. The overlapping area represented miRNAs responding to both temperature stresses. b Fold change of miRNAs in cold- and heat-treated banana fruit on the 5th day of storage, relative to non-treated control. Fold change was calculated on the basis of normalized reads of stressed vs. unstressed samples. Only differentially expressed (p < 0.01) miRNAs were shown
