Integrative analysis of long noncoding RNA and mRNA reveals candidate lncRNAs responsible for meat quality at different physiological stages in Gushi chicken.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation. However, the effects of lncRNAs on the meat quality of chicken hasn't been elucidated clearly yet. Gushi chickens are popular in China because of their superior meat quality, particularly t...
