Prediction of gene expression under drought stress in spring wheat using codon usage pattern.

ABSTRACT: Spring wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a staple food providing sources of essential proteins for human. In fact, gene expressions of wheat play an important role in growth and productivity that are affected by drought stress. The objective of this work focused on analysis gene feature on spring wheat represented by nucleotide and gene expressions under drought stress. It was found that the higher codon adaptation index was in both wheat root and L-galactono-1, 4-lactone dehydrogenase. It was also found that guanine and cytosine content were high (55.56%) in wheat root. Whereas, guanine and cytosine content were low (41.28%) in L-galactono-1, 4-lactone dehydrogenase. Moreover, the higher relative synonymous codon usage value was observed in codon CAA (1.20), GAA (1.33), GAT (1.00), and
