Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of CASPL gene family in Zea mays (L.).

ABSTRACT: Casparian strip membrane domain proteins like (CASPL), exhibit profound associations with root development, stress responsiveness and mineral element uptake in plants. Nonetheless, a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of the ZmCASPL gene family in maize remains unreported. In the study, we have identified 47 ZmCASPL members at the whole-genome level, systematically classifying them into six distinct groups. Furthermore, our analysis revealed that the same group of ZmCASPL contains similar gene structures and conserved motifs. Duplication events showed whole genome duplication (WGD) and tandem duplication (TD) contribute to the generation of the ZmCASPL gene family together in maize, but the former plays a more prominent role. Furthermore, we observed that mos
