Identification and Expression Profiling of Protein Phosphatases (PP2C) Gene Family in Gossypium hirsutum L.

ABSTRACT: The protein phosphatase (PP2C) gene family, known to participate in cellular processes, is one of the momentous and conserved plant-specific gene families that regulate signal transduction in eukaryotic organisms. Recently, PP2Cs were identified in Arabidopsis and various other crop species, but analysis of PP2C in cotton is yet to be reported. In the current research, we found 87 (Gossypium arboreum), 147 (Gossypium barbadense), 181 (Gossypium hirsutum), and 99 (Gossypium raimondii) PP2C-encoding genes in total from the cotton genome. Herein, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the PP2C gene family in cotton, such as gene structure organization, gene duplications, expression profiling, chromosomal mapping, pro
