Identification of the bZIP gene family and regulation of metabolites under salt stress in isatis indigotica.

ABSTRACT: The bZIP transcription factor family plays important roles in plant growth and development, response to stress, and regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis. The identification and molecular function of bZIP gene have been deeply studied in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, but it has not been reported in the medicinal plant Isatis indigotica. In this study, 65 IibZIP genes were identified in the genome of I. indigotica, which were distributed on seven chromosomes, were highly conserved, could be classified into 11 subgroups. Transcriptomic and metabolomic data for leaves of I. indigotica exposed to salt stress were analyzed to construct an IibZIP gene co-expression network and metabolite correlation network. Seventeen I
