Identification of crucial LncRNAs associated with testicular development and LOC108635509 as a potential regulator in black goat spermatogenesis.

ABSTRACT: The establishment and maintenance of spermatogenesis is a complex process involving a vast of regulatory pathways. There is growing evidence revealing that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) play important roles in regulating testicular development and spermatogenesis in a stage-specific way. However, our understanding of how lncRNA regulates testicular development and spermatogenesis in black goats is quite limited. In the current study, we screened the transcriptomes (lncRNA and mRNA) of testicular from Guangxi black goats before puberty (3 days old, D3; 30 days old, D30), puberty (90 days old, D90) and postpuberty (180 days old, D180), in order to identify the lncRNA interaction with mRNAs contributes to goat spermatogenesis. The RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis showed that there were 1211,
