Comparative genomics, microsynteny, ancestral state reconstruction and selection pressure analysis across distinctive genomes and sub-genomes of Brassicaceae for analysis of evolutionary history of VQ gene family.

ABSTRACT: Any unfavorable condition that affects the metabolism, growth, or development of plants is considered plant stress. The molecular response of plants towards abiotic stresses involves signaling to cellular components, repressing transcription factors, and subsequently induced metabolic changes. Most valine-glutamine (VQ) motif-containing genes in plants encode regulatory proteins that interact with transcription factors and modulate their activity as transcription regulators. Several VQ proteins regulate plant development and stress responses. In spite of the functional importance of VQs, there is relatively little information about their evolutionary history in Brassicaceae or beyond. Brassicaceae is characterized by paleoploidy, mesopolyploidy, and neopolyploidy, offering a resourc
