Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of Potato Long Non-coding RNAs Associated With Phytophthora infestans Resistance.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a crucial regulatory mechanism in the plant response to biotic and abiotic stress. However, their roles in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) resistance to Phytophthora infestans (P. infestans) largely remain unknown. In this study, we identify 2857 lncRNAs and 33,150 mRNAs of the potato from large-scale published RNA sequencing data. Characteristic analysis indicates a similar distribution pattern of lncRNAs and mRNAs on the potato chromosomes, and the mRNAs were longer and had more exons than lncRNAs. Identification of alternative splicing (AS) shows that there were a total of 2491 lncRNAs generated from AS and the highest frequency (46.49%) of alternative acceptors (AA). We performed R package TCseq to cluster 133 specific differentially e
