Identification and characterization of circular RNAs during the sea buckthorn fruit development.

ABSTRACT: As a rising star of noncoding RNA, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have a covalently closed loop structure, which formed by 3'-5' ligation during splicing. A few circRNAs were identified and thought to be transcriptional noise due to cognitive defect over the past 40 years. Recently, with the development of high-throughput RNA sequencing techniques and specific algorithms for circRNA detection and quantification, plenty of potential circRNAs were identified in many species which play important roles in various biological processes. However, researches on circRNAs in fruit ripening process were lacking. Here, we totally identified 2616 circRNAs in sea buckthorn fruit development process, which uniformly distributed in sea buckthorn chromosome. Among them, 1721 (65.8%) circRNAs were arising from th
