Differences in abundance of small RNA classes depending on milk fraction and production system.
Small RNA Class | p-Value Based on Student’s t Test | ||
---|---|---|---|
Cellular vs. Fat Fraction * | Cellular Fraction: Extensive vs. Intensive | Fat Fraction: Extensive vs. Intensive | |
rRNA | 0.004 | 0.513 | 0.827 |
snRNA | 0.196 | 0.268 | 0.184 |
snoRNA | 0.024 | 0.127 | 0.050 |
tRNA | 0.004 | 0.827 | 0.513 |
miRNA | 0.260 | 0.825 | 0.040 |
Non-coding RNA | 0.004 | 0.827 | 0.513 |
* Both intensive and extensive production systems together. rRNA: ribosomal ribonucleic acid; snRNA: small nuclear RNA; snoRNA: small nucleolar RNA; tRNA: transfer RNA; miRNA: microRNA; ncRNA: non-coding RNA. In bold are significant differences.
