Genome-wide identification of long non-coding RNAs in tomato plants irradiated by neutrons followed by infection with Tomato yellow leaf curl virus

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in regulating many biological processes. In this study, tomato seeds were first irradiated by neutrons. Eight tomato mutants were then selected and infected by Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV). RNA sequencing followed by bioinformatics analy...
