The Catalase Gene Family in Cotton: Genome-Wide Characterization and Bioinformatics Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Catalases (CATs), which were coded by the catalase gene family, were a type notably distinguished ROS-metabolizing proteins implicated to perform various physiological functions in plant growth, development and stress responses. However, no systematical study has been performed in cotton. In the present study, we identified 7 and 7 CAT genes in the genome of Gossypium hirsutum L. Additionally, G. barbadense L., respectively. The results of the phylogenetic and synteny analysis showed that the CAT genes were divided into two groups, and whole-genome duplication (WGD) or polyploidy events contributed to the expansion of the GossypiumCAT gene family. Expression patterns analysis showed that the CAT gene family possessed temporal and spatial spe
