Genome-wide identification, expression analysis, and transcriptome analysis of the IAA gene family in Zoysia japonica.

Background: AUX/IAA is an essential signaling molecule and has great physiological importance in various plants, but its function in Zoysia japonica remains unknown.

Methods And Results: Genome-wide identification and analysis of AUX/IAA genes used bioinformatics methods to investigate the ZjIAA genes' expression of exogenous IAA hydroponics treatment for 2 h by qRT-PCR, control and exogenous IAA treated zoysia were subjected to transcriptome sequencing. ZjIAAs were distributed across the 13 subfamilies by phylogenetic analysis with Oryza sativa and Arabidopsis thaliana.

Expression of a Hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA Shikimate/Quinate Hydroxycinnamoyl Transferase 4 Gene from () Causes Excessive Elongation and Lignin Composition Changes in .

Hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA shikimate/quinate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT) is considered to be an essential enzyme for regulating the biosynthesis and composition of lignin. To investigate the properties and function of , the gene was cloned from with a completed coding sequence of 1284-bp in length, encoding 428 amino acids. The gene promoter has several methyl jasmonate (MeJA) response elements.

Expression of , a Phytoene Synthase Gene from Affects Plant Height and Photosynthetic Pigment Contents.

Phytoene synthase (PSY) is a key limiting enzyme in the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway for regulating phytoene synthesis. In this study, was isolated and identified from , an important lawn grass species. cDNA was 1230 bp in length, corresponding to 409 amino acids.
