Description: We surveyed pre-miRNA registered in miRBase with secondary multi-loop brunch secondary structure or with a MFE higher than -16 kal/mol, and showed the results in Table S1 and S2. Table S3 lists the 27 bran-new hsa and aga pre-miRNA sequences used as testing set. Table S4 shows the detail results of 27 other animal genomes. We also supplied some detail of the features used in the main paper
