Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as important regulators in various biological processes. However, to date, no systematic characterization of lncRNAs has been reported the silkworm Bombyx mori. In present study, we generated eighteen RNA-seq datasets with relatively high depth. Using an in-house designed lncRNA identification pipeline, 11,810 were identified for 5,556 loci. Among these lncRNAs, 474 transcripts intronic (ilncRNAs), 6,250 intergenic (lincRNAs), and 5,086 natural...

Aspergillus niger is a highly versatile fungal strain utilized in industrial production. The expression levels of recombinant genes A. can be enhanced by increasing the copy number. Nevertheless, given prolonged gene editing cycle niger, "one-step" strategy facilitating simultaneous integration into multiple genomic loci would provide definitive advantage. In our previous study, visual multigene system (VMS) was designed to knock out five genes, employing tRNA-sgRNA array that includes...
