Article Synopsis
- The transcription factor FARL is crucial for light signaling and plant development, and it has evolved to have important biological functions despite its origins as a transposase.
- This study focuses on the Zea mays (corn) FARL protein family, discovering and analyzing fifteen ZmFARL genes using genome-wide data and RNA sequencing for expression profiling.
- The findings show that while ZmFARL genes are located on seven out of ten chromosomes and display conserved exon-intron and motif distribution, genes ZmFARL2 and ZmFARL5 are notably more expressed in various plant tissues, particularly leaves, highlighting their potential role in cellular activities.
