ABSTRACT: Background
The small YABBY plant-specific transcription factor has a prominent role in regulating plant growth progress and responding to abiotic stress.Results
Here, a total of 16 PvYABBYs from switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) were identified and classified into four distinct subgroups. Proteins within the same subgroup exhibited similar conserved motifs and gene structures. Synteny analyses indicated that segmental duplication contributed to the expansion of the YABBY gene family in switchgrass and that complex duplication events occurred in rice, maize, soybean, and sorghum. Promoter regions of PvYABBY genes contained numerous cis-elements related to stress responsiveness and plant hormones. Expression profile analysis indicated higher expression levels of many PvYABBY
