Genome-wide identification, characterization and expression profiles of FORMIN gene family in cotton (Gossypium Raimondii L.).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Gossypium raimondii serves as a widely used genomic model cotton species. Its genetic influence to enhance fiber quality and ability to adapt to challenging environments both contribute to increasing cotton production. The formins are a large protein family that predominately consists of FH1 and FH2 domains. The presence of the formin domains highly regulates the actin and microtubule filament in the cytoskeleton dynamics confronting various abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and cold temperatures.

Results

In this study, 26 formin genes were analyzed and characterized in G. raimondii and mostly were found in the nucleus and chloroplast. According to the evolutionary phylogenetic relationship, GrFH were dispersed and classified into seven different groups
