Integrated BSA-seq and RNA-seq analysis to identify candidate genes associated with nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUtE) in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.).

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is one of the important oil crops, with a high demand for nitrogen (N). It is essential to explore the potential of rapeseed to improve nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUtE).

Molecular Identification of the G-Protein Genes and Their Expression Profiles in Response to Nitrogen Deprivation in .

Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide binding protein (G-protein) consisting of Gα, Gβ, and Gγ subunits is one of the key signal transducers in plants. Recent studies indicated that G-protein has been proposed as an important mediator of nitrogen responses in rice, wheat, and . However, little is known about these G-proteins in (), except for three identified G-proteins, BnGA1, BnGB1, and BnGG2.

Identification and Expression Analysis of / Gene Family in L.

Slow type anion channels (SLAC/SLAHs) play important roles during anion transport, growth and development, abiotic stress responses and hormone responses in plants. However, there is few report on SLAC/SLAHs in rapeseed (). Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of / gene family members were performed in .

Genome-Wide Analysis of the Lateral Organ Boundaries Domain (LBD) Gene Family in .

Lateral organ boundaries domain () proteins belong to a particular class of transcription factors of lateral organ boundary () specific domains that play essential roles in plant growth and development. However, a potato phylogenetic analysis of the family has not been fully studied by scholars and researchers. In this research, bioinformatics methods and the growth of potatoes were used to identify 43 proteins.

Identification and characterization of phosphate transporter genes in potato.

Phosphate transporter (PHTs) have important roles in Pi acquisition, allocation, and signal transduction. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive knowledge of PHTs in potato. Very strict homology search and subsequent domain verification using Hidden Markov Models revealed that the potato genome has 20 StPHT and StPHOs genes which were grouped into 5 phylogenetical clusters including 8 PHT1 homologs,1 PHT2 homolog, 2 PHT3 homologs, 5 PHT4 homologs and 4 PHO homologs.

Genome-wide identification of the potato WRKY transcription factor family.

WRKY transcription factors play pivotal roles in regulation of stress responses. This study identified 79 WRKY genes in potato (Solanum tuberosum). Based on multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic relationships, WRKY genes were classified into three major groups.
