Characterization of the lncRNAs and circRNAs in the broiler abdominal fat tissues. A The whole expression levels and length distribution of lncRNAs and circRNAs. B The numbers of lncRNAs and circRNAs were identified in all the samples. C The classification and proportion of the identified lncRNAs. Exon sense-overlapping: the exon of the lncRNAs overlapping a coding transcript exon on the same genomic strand; intron sense-overlapping: the lncRNA overlapping the intron of a coding transcript on the same genomic strand; intronic antisense: the lncRNA overlapping the intron of a coding transcript on the antisense strand; natural antisense: the lncRNA transcribed from the antisense strand and overlapping with the exon of a coding transcript; bidirectional: the lncRNA oriented in a head to head fashion to a coding transcript within 1000 bp; intergenic: there are no overlapping or bidirectional coding transcripts near the lncRNA. D The classification and proportion of the identified circRNAs. Exonic: the circ-RNAs sourced from exons; intronic: the circ-RNAs sourced from introns; intergenic: the circRNAs sourced from intergenic regions; sense overlapping: the circRNAs sourced from the exons and intergenic regions; antisense: the circRNAs sourced from the exons and introns
