Genome-wide identification of DNA-binding with one finger transcription factor genes in Chinese chestnut and their response to abiotic stress.

ABSTRACT: DNA-binding with One Finger (Dof) proteins are unique single zinc finger transcription factors that play important roles in plant growth, development, and abiotic stress responses. However, the Dof genes in Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima) have not been studied yet. The transcription factor family in the Chinese chestnut genome was identified and analyzed using bioinformatics. The analysis results revealed that a total of 25 CmDof genes (CmDof1 - CmDof25) were identified in Chinese chestnut. Furthermore, we assessed the physicochemical properties, phylogeny, gene structures, cis-regulatory elements (CREs), and expression profiles. The 25 CmDof genes were categorized into five subfamilies according to the phylogeny analysis. Analysis of
