Genome-Scale Identification of Wild Soybean Serine/Arginine-Rich Protein Family Genes and Their Responses to Abiotic Stresses.

ABSTRACT: Serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins mostly function as splicing factors for pre-mRNA splicing in spliceosomes and play critical roles in plant development and adaptation to environments. However, detailed study about SR proteins in legume plants is still lacking. In this report, we performed a genome-wide investigation of SR protein genes in wild soybean (Glycine soja) and identified a total of 31 GsSR genes from the wild soybean genome. The analyses of chromosome location and synteny show that the GsSRs are unevenly distributed on 15 chromosomes and are mainly under the purifying selection. The GsSR proteins can be phylogenetically classified into six sub-families and are conserved in evolution. Prediction of protein phosphorylation sites indicates that GsSR proteins a
