Fig. 4From: Characterization of cadmium-responsive MicroRNAs and their target genes in maize (Zea mays) rootsChange of relative quantity of Zma-miR171b in B73 and Mo17 using ISH. The microscopic results were quantified as black-blue (ISH) staining as a positive signal in per unit area (n = 9). Error bars show the standard error calculated from three biological replicates. Shown are the means per section ± SEM. *p < 0.05 treatment time vs. 0 h; #p < 0.05 treatment vs. negative control (NC)Back to article page
