Article Synopsis
- Citrus fruits are vital for nutrition but are threatened by diseases like citrus canker, especially in countries like Pakistan, prompting this study into defense mechanisms involving specific genes related to salicylic acid.
- The research includes a genome-wide analysis to explore the evolutionary patterns of these genes in different citrus cultivars, identifying key structural domains and conserved motifs linked to disease resistance.
- Findings reveal how Xac infection affects gene expression in different citrus varieties, highlighting the importance of genetic and physiological traits in developing resistance against bacterial canker.
Zinc finger-homeodomain proteins are amongst the most prominent transcription factors (TFs) involved in biological processes, such as growth, development, and morphogenesis, and assist plants in alleviating the adverse effects of abiotic and biotic stresses. In the present study, genome-wide identification and expression analyses of the maize gene family were conducted. A total of 21 genes with different physicochemical properties were found distributed on nine chromosomes in maize.
