Genome-Wide Analysis of the lncRNAs and miRNAs Involved in Flower Development in Radish.

ABSTRACT: Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) is an important root vegetable in the cruciferous family. The yield and quality of radish is seriously affected by the premature bolting and flowering. Although the microRNAs (miRNAs) in regulating flower development have been established in radish, the identification and characterization of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have yet to be explored. In this study, miRNAs and lncRNAs in vegetative and flower stage were conducted by RNA-seq and small RNA sequencing, respectively. A total of 5315 differentially expressed genes (DGEs), 263 DElncRNAs, and 38 DEmiRNAs were detected in two stages. GO analysis found that many flower DGEs associated with reproductive process, response to hormone, and pollination were enriched. In total, 202 DElncRNAs and 257 DElncRNA
