Table 3.
Concordance between the circRNAs catalogue of the boar sperm and the circRNA list in other species and pig tissues. Number of circRNAs after Sscrofa11.1 liftover from human, mice and swine (detailed by tissue). Column ‘Pig sperm’ shows the proportion of swine sperm circRNAs that were identified in the given species and tissues. Column ‘Other species/tissues’ of the total circRNAs lists the proportion of circRNAs from that tissue or species that found a homolog in the boar sperm.
