Accumulation of homologous 25–26 nt sRNAs in the promoter region of RXLR effector genes. a Number of effector genes with sRNA accumulation in the upstream, downstream, and coding regions. b Average accumulation level of sRNA homologous to effector genes. c Number of effector genes enriched with sRNAs in the promoter regions. d Number and distribution of regional specific effector genes. e Heatmap visualization of sRNA accumulation levels of regional specific effector genes. f–k Differential accumulation of homologous 25–26 nt sRNAs in effector genes Pi15225, Pi12046, Pi06083, Pi09647, Pi10905, and Pi04329 in TSGS and WNGZ isolates. Statistical significance was assessed by Student’s t-test. ns, not significant. *P < 0.05
