Identification and characterization of long non-coding RNAs involved in embryo development of Ginkgo biloba.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulatory factors for plant growth and development. Despite this, little is known about the regulatory interactions of lncRNAs with mRNA during embryo development. Here, we used a bioinformatics genome-wide approach to identify lncRNAs involved in embryo development of Ginkgo biloba, based on RNA sequencing datasets from G. biloba embryos during early, middle, late developmental stages. In total, 2326 lncRNAs were identified in the G. biloba embryos, of which 1307 and 1019 could be classified as long intergenic non-coding RNAs and antisense lncRNAs, respectively. Among them, a total of 657 differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified in the different developmental stages of the G. biloba embryos. Based on the func
