Characteristics of silkworm lncRNAs. a Transcript length distribution in the lncRNAs and protein-coding genes. b AT/GC content among the silkworm genome, lncRNAs, and protein-coding genes. c Transcript exon number distribution. d Percentage of transcripts with at least 15 nt overlapping with transposable elements. e Sequence conservation between the silkworm (Bombyx mori) lncRNAs and other insects’ lncRNAs (Plutella xylostella, Apis cerana, Apis mellifera, Anopheles gambiae, Drosophila melanogaster, Nilaparvata lugens). The x axis is the number of silkworm lncRNAs that overlap with other insects’ lncRNAs at least 15 bp. f Expression scatter diagram in the lncRNAs and 2 kbp upstream protein-coding genes (Spearman test). g Expression scatter diagram in the lncRNAs and 2 kbp downstream protein-coding genes (Spearman test)
