The lncRNA male-specific abdominal plays a critical role in Drosophila accessory gland development and male fertility.
Although thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) have been identified in the genomes of higher eukaryotes, the precise function of most of them is still unclear. Here, we show that a >65 kb, male-specific, lncRNA, called male-specific abdominal (msa) is required for the development of the seco...
