Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of DREB family genes in cotton.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dehydration responsive element-binding (DREB) transcription factors are widely present in plants, and involve in signalling transduction, plant growth and development, and stress response. DREB genes have been characterized in multiple species. However, only a few DREB genes have been studied in cotton, one of the most important fibre crops. Herein, the genome‑wide identification, phylogeny, and expression analysis of DREB family genes are performed in diploid and tetraploid cotton species.

Results

In total, 193, 183, 80, and 79 putative genes containing the AP2 domain were identified using bioinformatics approaches in G. barbadense, G. hirsutum, G. arboretum, and G. raimondii, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that based on the categorization of Arabidop
