Comprehensive in-silico characterization and expression pattern of calmodulin genes under various abiotic and biotic stresses in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea).

ABSTRACT: Calcium (Ca²⁺) as a secondary messenger has a multidimensional role, including the growth and development of plants and the adaptive response to stress conditions. Calmodulin (CaM), a calcium-binding protein, uniquely binds with these Ca²⁺ ions and transmits Ca²⁺ signals. Calmodulin proteins have been well-reported in various plants for playing a role in abiotic and biotic stress signaling; however, a comprehensive analysis of the CaM genes of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) has not been studied much. This study reports their chromosome placements, phylogenetic relations, the presence of protein motifs and cis-acting elements, and their expression patterns under stress due to salt, heat, cadmium, Xanthomonas campestris, and A
