Identification and Characterization of PIWI-Interacting RNAs in Spinyhead Croakers <i>(Collichthys lucidus)</i> by Small RNA Sequencing
PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are an emerging class of small RNAs which protect the animal germline genome against deleterious transposable elements. Nevertheless, the characteristics and sex-related expression patterns of piRNA in <i>Collichthys lucidus</i> remain unknown. In this stud...
