Genome-wide identification and characterization of circular RNAs by high throughput sequencing in soybean

Abstract Circular RNAs (circRNAs) arise during pre-mRNA splicing, in which the 3′ and 5′ ends are linked to each other by a covalent bond. Soybean is an ancient tetraploid, which underwent two whole genome duplications. Most of soybean genes are paralogous genes with multiple copies. Although many c...
