Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of TALE Superfamily Genes in Soybean (Glycine max L.).

ABSTRACT: The three-amino-acid-loop-extension (TALE) superfamily genes broadly existed in plants, which played important roles in plant growth, development and abiotic stress responses. In this study, we identified 68 Glycine max TALE (GmTALE) superfamily members. Phylogenetic analysis divided the GmTALE superfamily into the BEL1-like (BLH/BELL homeodomain) and the KNOX (KNOTTED-like homeodomain) subfamilies. Moreover, the KNOX subfamily could be further categorized into three clades (KNOX Class I, KNOX Class II and KNOX Class III). The GmTALE genes showed similarities in the gene structures in the same subfamily or clade, whose coding proteins exhibited analogous motif and conserved domain compositions. Besides, synteny analyses and evolutionary constraint evaluations of the TALE memb
