Abstract
In addition to their roles in developmental and metabolic processes, MYB transcription factors play crucial roles in plant defense mechanisms and stress responses. A comprehensive analysis of six pearl millet genomes revealed the presence of 1133 MYB genes, which can be classified into four phylogenetically distinct subgroups. The duplication pattern of MYB genes across the pearl millet genomes demonstrates their conserved and similar evolutionary history. Overall, MYB genes were observed to be involved in drought and heat stress responses, with stronger differential expressed observed in root tissues. Multiple analyses indicated that MYB genes mediate abiotic stress responses by modulating abscisic acid-related pathways, circadian rhythms, and histone modification processes. A substantial number of duplicated genes were determined to exhibit differential expression under abiotic stress. The consistent positive expression trend observed in duplicated gene pairs, such as PMA5G04432.1 and PMA2G00728.1, across various abiotic stresses suggests that duplicated MYB genes plays a key role in the evolution of adaptive responses of pearl millet to abiotic stresses.
期刊介绍:
Genetica publishes papers dealing with genetics, genomics, and evolution. Our journal covers novel advances in the fields of genomics, conservation genetics, genotype-phenotype interactions, evo-devo, population and quantitative genetics, and biodiversity. Genetica publishes original research articles addressing novel conceptual, experimental, and theoretical issues in these areas, whatever the taxon considered. Biomedical papers and papers on breeding animal and plant genetics are not within the scope of Genetica, unless framed in an evolutionary context. Recent advances in genetics, genomics and evolution are also published in thematic issues and synthesis papers published by experts in the field.
