Abstract excerpt
CircRNAs, a class of widespread circular RNAs produced from precursor mRNA back-splicing, have been implicated in regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes, but their biological functions in plants have not yet been elucidated. By deep sequencing of rRNA-removed and RNase R-digested RNA samples we have identified several thousands of putative back-splicing sites in tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicum) and show...
