A transcriptomic profile of topping responsive non-coding RNAs in tobacco roots (Nicotiana tabacum).

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs), long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), accomplish remarkable variety of biological functions. However, the composition of ncRNAs and their interactions with coding RNAs in modulating and controlling of cellular process in plants is largely unknown. Using a diverse group of high-throughput sequencing strategies, the mRNA, miRNA, lncRNA and circRNA compositions of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) roots determined and their alteration and potential biological functions in response to topping treatment analyzed. RESULTS:A total of 688 miRNAs, 7423 non-redundant lncRNAs and 12,414 circRNAs were identified, among which, some selected differentially expressed RNAs were verified by quantitative real-time PCR.
