Genome-wide identification and characterization of bZIP gene family explore the responses of PsebZIP44 and PsebZIP46 in Pseudoroegneria libanotica under drought stress.

ABSTRACT: The fundamental leucine zipper (bZIP) genes play a crucial role as transcriptional coactivators in plants. Pseudoroegneria libanotica served as the maternal contributor to several species within the tribe Triticeae (Poaceae), exhibiting commendable resilience to various stressors. Consequently, bZIP genes of Pseudoroegneria libanotica response to abiotic stresses was important for further understanding of stress tolerance studies in Triticeae. A total of 108 PsebZIPs were identified in this study, and they were divided into 10 subgroups. PsebZIPs were found to be extensively involved in the biological activities within P. libanotica. The RNA-seq results revealed differential responses of PsebZIPs to drought stress in both aerial and root tissues. PsebZIP44 and PsebZIP46 were regarded as po
