Pan-Genome-Based Characterization of the SRS Transcription Factor Family in Foxtail Millet.

ABSTRACT: The Short Internodes-Related Sequence (SRS) family, a class of plant-specific transcription factors crucial for diverse biological processes, was systematically investigated in foxtail millet using pan-genome data from 110 core germplasm resources as well as two high-quality genomes (xm and Yu1). We identified SRS members and analyzed their intra-species distribution patterns, including copy number variation (CNV) and interchromosomal translocations. A novel standardized nomenclature (Accession_SiSRSN[.n]_xDy or xTy) was proposed to unify gene family nomenclature, enabling the direct visualization of member number variation across germplasms and the identification of core/variable members while highlighting chromosomal translocations. Focusing on the two high-quality genomes,
