This volume presents readers with up-to-date protocols, bioinformatics toolkits, and reference material for understanding circRNAs in plants. The chapters in this book summarize the concepts and techniques for prediction/identification, validation, and analysis of plant circRNAs and their regulatory targets. Some of the topics covered are procedures for circRNA identification and characterization; strategies for circRNA generation; next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies and circRNAs' research; and bioinformatics tools and pipelines for the analysis of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory networks. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Plant Circular RNAs: Methods and Protocols is an important reference for any researcher looking to explore and apply the latest developments made in this field. .
