The Full-Length Transcriptome Provides New Insights Into the Transcript Complexity of Abdominal Adipose and Subcutaneous Adipose in Pekin Ducks.

ABSTRACT: Adipose tissues have a central role in organisms, and adipose content is a crucial economic trait of poultry. Pekin duck is an ideal model to study the mechanism of abdominal and subcutaneous adipose deposition for its high ability of adipose synthesis and deposition. Alternative splicing contributes to functional diversity in abdominal and subcutaneous adipose. However, there has been no systematic analysis of the dynamics of differential alternative splicing of abdominal and subcutaneous adipose in Pekin duck. In our study, the Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) Iso-Seq technology was applied to explore the transcriptional complexity of abdominal and subcutaneous adipose in Pekin ducks. In total, 143,931 and 111,337 full-length non-chimeric transcriptome sequences of abdominal and subcutaneous
