Transcriptome dynamics uncovers long non-coding RNAs response to salinity stress in Chenopodium quinoa.

ABSTRACT: Chenopodium quinoa is a crop with outstanding tolerance to saline soil, but long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) expression profile driven by salt stress in quinoa has rarely been observed yet. Based on the high-quality quinoa reference genome and high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), genome-wide identification of LncRNAs was performed, and their dynamic response under salt stress was then investigated. In total, 153,751 high-confidence LncRNAs were discovered and dispersed intensively in chromosomes. Expression profile analysis demonstrated significant differences between LncRNAs and coding RNAs. Under salt stress conditions, 4,460 differentially expressed LncRNAs were discovered, of which only 54 were differentially expressed at all the stress time points. Besides, strongly significantly c
