Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Profiling of the SPL Transcription Factor Family in Response to Abiotic Stress in Centipedegrass.

ABSTRACT: SQUAMOSA promoter-binding protein-like (SPL) transcription factors play a critical role in the regulation of gene expression and are indispensable in orchestrating plant growth and development while also improving resistance to environmental stressors. Although it has been identified across a wide array of plant species, there have been no comprehensive studies on the SPL gene family in centipedegrass [Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro) Hack.], which is an important warm-season perennial C4 turfgrass. In this study, 19 potential EoSPL genes in centipedegrass were identified and assigned the names EoSPL1-EoSPL19. Gene structure and motif analysis demonstrated that there was relative consistency among the branches of the phylogenetic tree. Five pairs of segment
