Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the AT-hook Motif Nuclear Localized gene family in soybean.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Soybean is an important legume crop and has significant agricultural and economic value. Previous research has shown that the AT-Hook Motif Nuclear Localized (AHL) gene family is highly conserved in land plants, playing crucial roles in plant growth and development. To date, however, the AHL gene family has not been studied in soybean.

Results

To investigate the roles played by the AHL gene family in soybean, genome-wide identification, expression patterns and gene structures were performed to analyze. We identified a total of 63 AT-hook motif genes, which were characterized by the presence of the AT-hook motif and PPC domain in soybean. The AT-hook motif genes were distributed on 18 chromosomes and formed two distinct clades (A and B), as shown by phylogenetic an
