Insights into cucumber (Cucumis sativus) genetics: Genome-wide discovery and computational analysis of the Calreticulin Domain-Encoding gene (CDEG) family.

ABSTRACT: Cucumber is an essential vegetable crop throughout the world. Cucumber development is vital for accomplishing both quality and productivity requirements. Meanwhile, numerous factors have resulted in substantial cucumber losses. However, the calreticulin domain-encoding genes (CDEGs) in cucumber were not well-characterized and had little function. In the genome-wide association study (GWAS), we recognized and characterized the CDEGs in Cucumis sativus (cucumber). Through a comprehensive study of C. sativus, our research has unveiled the presence of three unique genes, denoted as CsCRTb, CsCRT3, and CsCNX1, unevenly distributed on three chromosomes in the genome of C. sativus. In accordance to the phylogenetic investigation, these genes may be categorized i
