Long Noncoding-RNAs (LncRNAs) are known to be involved in some biological processes, but their roles plant-virus interactions remain largely unexplored. While circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been studied animals, there has yet extensive research on them a plant system, especially tomato-tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) interaction.
