Distribution and Classification of Dehydrins in Selected Plant Species Using Bioinformatics Approach.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Plant growth, reproduction and yields are severely damaged under adverse environmental stresses. These stresses can be either biotic or abiotic, and many stress related proteins are expressed in response to these stresses. Among these proteins dehydrins are reported to have a role primarily in the abiotic stresses. Dehydrins are very diverse proteins and a uniform annotation system is needed for their functional characterization in the future research.

Objectives

The aim of the present work is to identify, classify and analyze the expression of dehydrin proteins under different biotic and abiotic stresses in the selected plant species by using different computational tools.

Materials and methods

Prosite database is used for dehydrin proteins identification,
