Genome-Wide Identification of LBD Genes in Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica) and Functional Characterization of SiLBD21.

ABSTRACT: Plant-specific lateral organ boundaries domain (LBD) proteins play important roles in plant growth and development. Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is one new C₄ model crop. However, the functions of foxtail millet LBD genes are unknown. In this study, a genome-wide identification of foxtail millet LBD genes and a systematical analysis were conducted. A total of 33 SiLBD genes were identified. They are unevenly distributed on nine chromosomes. Among these SiLBD genes, six segmental duplication pairs were detected. The thirty-three encoded SiLBD proteins could be classified into two classes and seven clades. Members in the same clade have similar gene structure and motif composition. Forty-seven kinds of cis-elements were found in the pu
