Identification of lncRNAs and Genes Responsible for Fatness and Fatty Acid Composition Traits between the Tibetan and Yorkshire Pigs

Figure 1

Descriptive statistics of phenotypes and RNA-Seq data. (a) Phenotypic statistics of the fatness trait. Back-fat thinness was adjusted to the body weight. (b) Phenotypic statistics of the fatty acid composition trait. (c) The number of quantified transcripts in the Tibetan and Yorkshire pigs. (d) Volcano plot of differentially expressed transcripts between the Tibetan and Yorkshire pigs. (e) Classification of identified lncRNAs. (f) The number of quantified LncRNAs in the Tibetan and Yorkshire pigs. (g) Volcano plot of differentially expressed lncRNAs between the Tibetan and Yorkshire pigs. LFP: left leaf fat percentage; SFT: back-fat thinness at shoulder; RFT: back-fat thinness at rib; BFT: back-fat thinness at first lumbar; LFT: back-fat thinness at last lumbar; AFT: average back-fat thinness; TA (14:0): tetradecanoic acid; HA (16:0): hexadecanoic acid; HA (16:1): hexadecenoic acid; SA (18:0): stearic acid; OA (18:1): octadecenoic acid; OA (18:2): octadecadienoic acid; OA (18:3): octadecatrienoic acid; EA (20:1): eicosenoic acid; EZ (20:2): eicosadienoic acid; EA (20:3): eicosatrienoic acid; EA (20:4): eicosatetraenoic acid; SFA: saturated fatty acid; MUFA: monounsaturated fatty acid; PUFA: polyunsaturated fatty acid.
