A dataset of microRNAs during embryonic development of common carp, Cyprinus carpio
The Cyprinus carpio is one of the most important food fish with over hundred varieties in the world. It shows many morphological and genetic variations after selection breeding. It is also considered an alternative vertebrate fish model to zebrafish.  MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been suggested to have a crucial role in embryonic development. However, systemic research on the lncRNAs and miRNAs during embryonic development of C. carpio has not been reported yet. In this study, we investigated the miRNA, lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles during six main embryonic development stages (cleavage (2 hours post-fertilization hpf)), blastocyst (6 hpf), gastrulation (12 hpf), organ formation (20 hpf), hatching (64 hpf) and 1 day post-hatching). A total of 9,888,123 clean reads were obtained frommiRNA library. After filtering,  2886 miRNAs were identified. The results would open the way for future genetic, genomic, and evolutionary studies and enable better understanding of gene regulation during embryonic development of C. carpio. Overall design: miRNAs in embryonic development stages of common carp were detected by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500.
