Hi,
the following is a mapping between non-coding biotypes and Sequence 
Ontology from a couple of years ago. It was built by biology experts for 
our non-coding database ncRNAdb.

BIOTYPE    SO_TERM
antisense    SO:0001904
antisense_RNA    SO:0000644
guide_RNA    SO:0000602
lincRNA    SO:0001463
lncRNA    SO:0001877
processed_transcript    SO:0001877
retained_intron    SO: 0001877
sense_intronic    SO:0001903
sense_overlapping    SO:0001877
miRNA    SO:0000276
miRNA_primary_transcript    SO:0000647
misc_RNA    SO:0000483
Mt_rRNA    SO:0000737
Mt_tRNA    SO:0000737
piRNA    SO:0001035
precursor_RNA    SO:0000483
RNase_MRP_RNA    SO:0000385
RNase_P_RNA    SO:0000386
rRNA    SO:0000252
scRNA    SO:0000013
snoRNA    SO:0000275
snRNA    SO:0000274
SRP_RNA    SO:0000590
telomerase_RNA    SO:0000390
tRNA    SO:0000253
Y_RNA    SO:0000405

Please, if anyone can increase/update this list, it's welcome.

Flavio
