Transcriptome analysis reveals core lncRNA-mRNA networks regulating melanization and biomineralization in Patinopecten yessoensis shell-infested by Polydora.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patinopecten yessoensis, a large and old molluscan group, has been one of the most important aquaculture shellfish in Asian countries because of its high economic value. However, the aquaculture of the species has recently been seriously affected by the frequent outbreaks of Polydora disease, causing great economic losses. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) exhibit exhibit crucial effects on diverse biological processes, but still remain poorly studied in scallops, limiting our understanding of the molecular regulatory mechanism of P. yessoensis in response to Polydora infestation.

Results

In this study, a high-throughput transcriptome analysis was conducted in the mantles of healthy and Polydora-infected P. yessoensis by RNA sequencing. A total of 19,133 lncRNAs with
