Somatic expression of ovary-biased and testis-biased miRNAs. (A) Proportion of autosomal MMGs with ovary-biased or testis-biased expression that are detected in at least one somatic tissue. (B) Somatic sex bias of ovary-biased and testis-biased miRNAs. If an MMG was detected in more than one somatic tissue, the most extreme M:F ratio was chosen. Statistical significance: (**) P < 0.01; (***) P < 0.001; (n.s.) not significant.
