The heavy metal-associated isoprenylated plant protein (HIPP) gene family plays a crucial role in cadmium resistance and accumulation in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis L.).

Heavy metal-associated isoprenylated plant proteins (HIPPs) are only distributed in vascular plants, and are essential for the detoxification and vascular transport of heavy metals in plants. However, the HIPP gene family has not been thoroughly explored in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis). In this study, we systematically identified 56C.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Differentially Expressed Genes Involved in Cadmium and Arsenic Accumulation in Tea Plant ().

Tea () is the second most consumed drink in the world. Rapid industrialization has caused various impacts on nature and increased pollution by heavy metals. However, the molecular mechanisms of cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) tolerance and accumulation in tea plants are poorly understood.

Genome-wide identification and characterization of PdbHLH transcription factors related to anthocyanin biosynthesis in colored-leaf poplar (Populus deltoids).

Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins are transcription factors (TFs) that have been shown to regulate anthocyanin biosynthesis in many plant species. However, the bHLH gene family in Populus deltoids has not yet been reported. In this study, 185 PdbHLH genes were identified in the Populus deltoids genome and were classified into 15 groups based on their sequence similarity and phylogenetic relationships.
