miRNA profile of duck duodenum mucosa damage caused by transportation stress. miRNA profile of duck duodenum mucosa damage caused by transportation stress

We deep sequenced and analyzed miRNAs using deep RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in transported and control duck's duodenum sample of Jingjiang duck. We analyzed the miRNA data with 9467248 reads and 9808143 million reads, obtained 9338224 and 9677777 clean reads in transported and control duck's by high-throughput sequencing, respectively. we respectively gained 4636135 and 4759049 miRNAs sequences in two groups by filtering the known non-miRNA reads, such as rRNA, tRNA, snRNA, and snoRNA by screening against ncRNA deposited in the GenBank and Rfam databases. These findings provided insights into the expression profiles of miRNAs in duck duodenum, and deepened our understanding of miRNAs in transportation injury of duck. Overall design: Examination of miRNA expression profile in transported duck's duodenum and control duck's duodenum samples
