Genome-wide identification of bHLH transcription factors in Kenaf (<i>Hibiscus cannabinus</i> L.) and gene function analysis of <i>HcbHLH88</i>.

ABSTRACT: Among plants' transcription factor families, the bHLHs family has a significant influence on plant development processes and stress tolerance. However, there have been no relevant studies performed on the bHLHs family in kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L). Here, the bHLH transcription factors in kenaf were found using bioinformatics, and a total of 141 kenaf HcbHLH transcription factors were identified. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that these transcription factors were irregularly distributed on 18 chromosomes and separated into 20 subfamilies. Additionally, utilizing the transcriptome data under diverse abiotic pressures, the expression of HcbHLH members was analyzed under different stress conditions. A typical HcbHLH abiotic stress transcription factor, HcbHLH
