Gene ontology (GO) and KEGG analysis of predicted target genes in wheat. a GO enrichment analysis of the predicted target genes. The X-axis represents the number of genes, and the Y-axis represents the functional category. The numbers indicate the numbers of the genes related to corresponding functions. b KEGG enrichment analysis of the predicted target genes. The statistics of the potential target gene path enrichment of the vsiRNAs were conducted. The X-axis indicates the ratio of the numbers of target genes located in the pathway items, while the Y-axis represents the functional category
