Comparative co-expression network analysis extracts the SlHSP70 gene affecting to shoot elongation of tomato.

ABSTRACT: Tomato is one of vegetables crops that has the highest value in the world. Thus, researchers are continually improving the agronomical traits of tomato fruits. Auxins and gibberellins regulate plant growth and development. Aux/indole-3-acetic acid 9 (SlIAA9) and the gene encoding the DELLA protein (SlDELLA) are well-known genes that regulate plant growth and development, including fruit set and enlargement by cell division and cell expansion. The absence of tomato SlIAA9 and SlDELLA results in abnormal shoot growth and leaf shape and giving rise to parthenocarpy. To investigate the key regulators that exist up- or downstream of SlIAA9 and SlDELLA signaling pathways for tomato growth and development, we performed gene co-expression net
