Genome-wide analysis and functional characterization of CHYR gene family associated with abiotic stress tolerance in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

ABSTRACT:

Background

CHY zinc-finger and RING finger (CHYR) proteins have been functionally characterized in plant growth, development and various stress responses. However, the genome-wide analysis was not performed in wheat.

Results

In this study, a total of 18 TaCHYR genes were identified in wheat and classified into three groups. All TaCHYR genes contained CHY-zinc finger, C3H2C3-type RING finger and zinc ribbon domains, and group III members included 1-3 hemerythrin domains in the N-terminus regions. TaCHYR genes in each group shared similar conserved domains distribution. Chromosomal location, synteny and cis-elements analysis of TaCHYRs were also analyzed. Real-time PCR results indicated that most of selected 9 TaCHYR genes exhibited higher expression levels in leaves during wh
