Additional file 5 of Diet-derived transmission of MicroRNAs from host plant into honey bee Midgut

Additional file 5 Table S5. Detection of sunflower and sedr miRNAs in honey bee midgut. The miRNAs that were detected in both biological replications of each treatment were kept for further analysis. Interestingly, all the identified miRNAs (11 miRNAs in each group) were detected in both biological replications in both plants. Of these miRNAs, nine miRNAs i.e. miR-148a-3p, miR-26a, miR-21-5p, miR-143, miR-27a, miR-203, let-7 g, miR-126, and miR-30d exist in both two groups (honey bee fed with sunflower and sedr pollen). The miR-101 and miR-103 were only detected in honey bees fed with sunflower, while miR-199b-3p and miR-206 were found in honey bees treated with sedr pollen.
