A ceRNAs network was constructed based on the ceRNAs theory, specifically the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network, in order to gain insight into the interactions among circRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs. The miRNA dataset for common carp was obtained from literature (Wang et al., 2017b), while the mRNA data was acquired from the NCBI database. TargetFinder was used to identify circRNA targets of miRNAs (Fahlgren and Carrington, 2010). MRNA targets of identified miRNAs were determined by submitting miRNA sequences and common carp mRNA sequences to the psRNAtarget webserver.
