Identification of two new GRAS transcription factors and expression analysis of these genes in <i>Chenopodium quinoa</i>.

ABSTRACT: Chenopodium quinoa is a relatively new and excellent crop, and its growth is frequently threatened by abiotic stress. GRAS genes are considered to be a plant-specific transcriptional regulatory family, which is essential for controlling aboveground and root development, as well as enhancing tolerance to abiotic stress. Phylogeny, gene structure, genomic location, conserved motif, cis-element, protein interaction, and expression pattern were all comprehensively investigated in this research of the quinoa GRAS genes. According to its structure and phylogenetic characteristics, the identified quinoa 54 GRAS members were divided into 10 subgroups. The distribution of CqGRAS genes on 19 quinoa chromosomes is uneven, with Chr07 and Chr18 having the largest number of g
