Identification of CCCH Zinc Finger Proteins Family in Moso Bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis), and PeC3H74 Confers Drought Tolerance to Transgenic Plants.

ABSTRACT: CCCH zinc finger proteins are a class of important zinc-finger transcription factors and have functions in various plant growth and stress responses, but their functions in moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) are unclear. In this current study, we main investigated the structures, phylogenetic relationships, promoter elements and microsynteny of PeC3Hs. In this research, 119 CCCH zinc finger proteins (PeC3H1-119) identified genes in moso bamboo were divided into 13 subfamilies (A-M) based on phylogenetic analysis. Meanwhile, moso bamboo were treated with abscisic acid (ABA), methyl jasmonate (Me-JA) and gibberellic acid (GA) and 12 CCCH genes expression levels were assayed using qRT-PCR. In the three hormone treatments, 12 genes were up-regulated or down-regulated, resp
