Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of <i>NF-YA</i> Gene Family in the Filling Stage of Wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i> L.).

ABSTRACT: The NF-YA gene family is a highly conserved transcription factor that plays a crucial role in regulating plant growth, development, and responses to various stresses. Despite extensive studies in multiple plants, there has been a dearth of focused and systematic analysis on NF-YA genes in wheat grains. In this study, we carried out a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of the NF-YA gene family in wheat, using the latest genomic data from the Chinese Spring. A total of 19 TaNF-YA genes were identified. An analysis of conserved domains, phylogenetic relationships, and gene structure indicated a significant degree of conservation among TaNF-YAs. A gene collinearity analysis demonstrated that fragment duplication was the predominant mechanism driving the amplification of
