Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analyses of the FAR1/FHY3 Gene Family Provide Insight into Inflorescence Development in Maize.

ABSTRACT: As transcription factors derived from transposase, FAR-RED IMPAIRED RESPONSE1 (FAR1) and its homolog FHY3 play crucial roles in the regulation of light signaling and various stress responses by coordinating the expression of downstream target genes. Despite the extensive investigation of the FAR1/FHY3 family in Arabidopsis thaliana and other species, a comprehensive examination of these genes in maize has not been conducted thus far. In this study, we employed a genomic mining approach to identify 16 ZmFAR1 genes in the maize inbred line B73, which were further classified into five subgroups based on their phylogenetic relationships. The present study characterized the predicted polypeptide sequences, molecular weights, isoelectric points, chromosomal dis
