Genome-Wide Identification of the CBF Gene Family and ICE Transcription Factors in Walnuts and Expression Profiles under Cold Conditions.

ABSTRACT: Cold stress impacts woody tree growth and perennial production, especially when the temperature rapidly changes in late spring. To address this issue, we conducted the genome-wide identification of two important transcription factors (TFs), CBF (C-repeat binding factors) and ICE (inducers of CBF expression), in three walnut (Juglans) genomes. Although the CBF and ICE gene families have been identified in many crops, very little systematic analysis of these genes has been carried out in J. regia and J. sigillata. In this study, we identified a total of 16 CBF and 12 ICE genes in three Juglans genomes using bioinformatics analysis. Both CBF and ICE had conserved domains, motifs, and gene structures, which suggests that these two TFs were evolutionari
