This review focus on the current knowledge of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in molluscs. In this review, we provide an overview of long ncRNAs (lncRNA), microRNAs (miRNA) and piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNA), followed by evidence for the regulation of ncRNAs in variety of biological process in molluscs, including development, biomineralization and innate immune response. This review advances our understanding on the roles of ncRNAs in molluscs and suggest the future direction to fully understand the epigenetic regulatory network of molluscs.
