The Association between BZIP Transcription Factors and Flower Development in Litsea cubeba.

ABSTRACT: The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) family is one of the largest families of transcription factors among eukaryotic organisms. Members of the bZIP family play various roles in regulating the intricate process of flower development in plants. Litsea cubeba (Lour.) (family: Lauraceae) is an aromatic, dioecious plant used in China for a wide range of applications. However, no study to date has undertaken a comprehensive analysis of the bZIP gene family in L. cubeba. In this work, we identified 68 members of the bZIP gene family in L. cubeba and classified them into 12 subfamilies based on previous studies on Arabidopsis thaliana. Transcriptome data analysis revealed that multiple LcbZIP genes exhibit significantly high expression levels in t
