Genome-wide analysis of the Tritipyrum bHLH gene family and the response of TtbHLH310 in salt-tolerance.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The bHLH transcription factor is prevalent across the plant kingdom and is crucial for various abiotic stress responses in different plant species. Tritipyrum, an octoploid created from an intergeneric cross between Triticum aestivum (AABBDD) and Thinopyrum elongatum (EE), serves as a significant source of germplasm, facilitating the incorporation of desirable traits from Th. elongatum into T. aestivum. With the recent availability of the complete genome sequences of T. aestivum and Th. elongatum, it has become feasible to investigate the organization and expression patterns of bHLH genes within the Tritipyrum genome.

Results

In this study, a total of 398 bHLH genes (TtbHLH) were identified within the Tritipyrum genome. These genes were classified into twenty majo
