Transcriptome Analysis of Fat Deposition in Buffalo at Different Stages

Background: Background: In bovines, the development and growth of adipose involves many physiological processes and plays an extremely important role in the quality of beef, however, the regulatory mechanisms underlying the differences in meat quality are largely unknown. Therefore, a buffalo adipose transcriptome analysis was performed to compare gene expression profiles between different growth stages. Results: Finally, a total of 21,693 mRNAs were obtained, of which 2506 were significantly differentially expressed mRNAs in the two groups, 9494 lncRNAs, a total of 281 lncRNAs and 2506 mRNAs showed significant differential expression patterns and 14990 between the two buffaloes CircRNA, 252 circRNAs were significantly differentially expressed between young and adult buffalo. Overall design: Six adipose samples from Xinyang buffalo of two developmental states (6Month and 30Month old) were collected from Benniu abattoir, a local slaughterhouse of Xinayang, P.R. China.
