	miRNAs in F1 generation up regulated by exposure to 20uM and 20mM nicotine during F0 generation.	Statistical analysis was based on t-test for independent samples via SPSS to compare each of the nicotine treatments with control (i.e. low vs. control and high vs. control). Welch test correction was performed to account for unequal variance in each of the compared groups (control and treatment). In addition, to increase the statistical stringency, miRNAs differential expression was deemed significant only if it fulfilled two criteria: p value , 0.05 and expression changed by at least 50% relative to control.
