Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the GRAS transcription factor family and its expression profiles in Elymus sibiricus.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Elymus sibiricus is widely utilized for establishing of high-yield artificial grasslands due to its remarkable productivity and strong resistance to environmental stresses, making it an excellent forage species. GRAS transcription factors play a pivotal role in regulating plant growth, development, and responses to abiotic stress. Although the GRAS gene family has been identified in various plant species, its identification and function in E. sibiricus remain largely unexplored.

Result

A comprehensive genome-wide analysis identified a total of 130 EsGRAS genes in E. sibiricus. Comprehensive analyses, including chromosomal distribution, gene structure, conserved motifs, cis-acting regulatory elements and evolutionary relationships, were conducted. Protein-protein i
