Expression pattern of miR408 and miR528 family members in four hybrid combinations

miRNA ID	Zhengdan 958		Anyu 5		Zheng 58 × Huangzaosi		Ye 478 × Huangzaosi
	D/A	classification	D/A	classification	D/A	classification	D/A	classification
zma-miR408b-5p	−8.08	–	−6.08	–	\	\	\	\
zma-miR408a	1.38	+	\	\	\	\	\	\
zma-miR528a-5p	\	\	−2.96	–	\	\	−1.09	–
zma-miR528a-3p	−1.72	–	\	\	−0.93	–	\	\

Note: The D/A was calculated according to the formula (F1-MP)/(HP-MP) by expression abundance; “++”, extremely high parental expression (D/A greater than 2); “+”, high parental expression (D/A greater than 0.5 and below 2); “+−”, additive expression (D/A greater than − 0.5 and below 0.5); “-”, low parental expression (D/A greater than − 2 and below − 0.5); “--”, extremely low parental expression (D/A below − 2)
