Genome-wide identification, expression analysis, and functional study of the bZIP transcription factor family and its response to hormone treatments in pea (Pisum sativum L.).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) protein is a plant-specific transcription factor involved in various biological processes, including light signaling, seed maturation, flower development, cell elongation, seed accumulation protein, and abiotic and biological stress responses. However, little is known about the pea bZIP family.

Results

In this study, we identified 87 bZIP genes in pea, named PsbZIP1 ~ PsbZIP87, via homology analysis using Arabidopsis. The genes were divided into 12 subfamilies and distributed unevenly in 7 pea chromosomes. PsbZIPs in the same subfamily contained similar intron/exon organization and motif composition. 1 tandem repeat event and 12 segmental duplication events regulated the expansion of the PsbZIP gene family. To better understand the evol
