The ABA signaling pathway involves three key components: ABA receptors known as PYLs, PP2Cs, and SnRK2s, which are conserved across higher plants. This study comprehensively investigated the PYL-PP2C-SnRK gene family in pecan, identifying 14 PYL genes, 97 PP2C genes, and 44 SnRK genes, which were categorized into subgroups through phylogenetic and sequence structure analysis.

Phenolic compounds represent the main oxidation reaction substrates, thus leading to quality deterioration, namely pellicle browning or a decrease in beneficial effects during pecan storage. Hence, four different storage conditions were performed for 180 d to simulate real production situations.

Calcineurin B-like proteins (CBLs) are plant-specific Ca sensors that interact with CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) to transmit Ca signals. CBL-CIPK complexes have been reported to play pivotal roles in plant development and response to drought stress; however, limited information is available about the CBL and CIPK genes in pecan, an important nut crop.

Although have been characterized in several model species, no systematic analysis has been studied in pecans, an important woody oil tree species. In this study, a total of 32 genes () were identified in the pecan genome.

Protein kinases (PKs) are involved in plant growth and stress responses, and constitute one of the largest superfamilies due to numerous gene duplications. However, limited PKs have been functionally described in pecan, an economically important nut tree. Here, the comprehensive identification, annotation and classification of the entire pecan kinome are reported.
