Genome-wide Identification and Characterization of Natural Antisense Transcripts by Strand-specific RNA Sequencing in Ganoderma lucidum
Abstract Ganoderma lucidum is a white-rot fungus best-known for its medicinal and ligninolytic activities. To discover the underlying genes responsible for these activities, we identified and characterized the natural antisense transcripts (NATs) using strand-specific (ss) RNA-seq data obtained from...
