  "summary": "Background: Long non protein coding (lnc)RNAs are ubiquitous transcripts known to be major regulators of cellular processes in eukaryotes. In diatoms, specific lncRNA expression is tightly correlated to nutrient fluctuations, which suggests function, but their biological relevance remains to be established. In order to fill this knowledge gap, we sought to design a protocol to generate diatom…",
