Significant correlations were established between modulated lncRNAs and such genes as galaxin (DEG), an ankyrin protein, a Toll-like receptor precursor, MyD88, a CD63 antigen coding gene and the ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX58, all of which are implicated in the modulated immune response against infection in gills (Table 3). This evidence concerns the gene MYD88 and infection.
