Genome-wide exploration of C2H2 zinc finger family in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. Durum): insights into the roles in biological processes especially stress response.

C2H2 type of zinc finger transcription factors (C2H2-ZFP TFs) play crucial roles in plant developments and stress response. Regarding its importance, genome-wide study of C2H2-ZFs were performed in multiple important plant species, but any such investigation was not fulfilled in Triticum turgidum ssp. Durum (durum wheat) as an important nutritional crop.
