+## Prediction of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in *Zea mays* by supplementing pyrpipe with a third-party tool
+
+We downloaded RNA-Seq data, quality filtered using Trim Galore, aligned reads using STAR and transcripts were assembled using StringTie.
+Then, we used a third party tool, (PLncPRO), to predict lncRNAs in the assembled transcripts.
