Annotating long intergenic non-coding RNAs under artificial selection during chicken domestication

Abstract Background Numerous biological functions of long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been identified. However, the contribution of lincRNAs to the domestication process has remained elusive. Following domestication from their wild ancestors, animals display substantial changes in man...
