Annotation confidence High
Do you think this miRNA is real?
Comments
This miRNA was experimentally identified in the closely related Aedes albopictus in [2], for which there was no genome sequence, and therefore mapped to the Aedes aegypti genome. Li et al. also validate the expression in A. aegypti [1].
