The trihelix transcription factors (THX TFs) play a crucial role in light responses and are involved plant growth, development, stress responses. In this study, we have identified 35 TFs pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), which is one of the most widely grown C4 cereal crops tropical semi-arid regions. Identified PgTHXs (Trihelix members P. glaucum) were classified into 5 subgroups (GT1, GT2, GTγ, SH4, SIP1) based on phylogenetic analysis, these subgroup shared similar gene structure motif distribution pattern. Collinearity analysis exhibited duplication events family across genome. Gene ontology (GO) annotation cis-regulatory elements (CREs) suggested their involvement diverse biological molecular functions associated with RNA sequencing data expression profile displayed differential patterns under abiotic phytohormone treatments. induced pattern PgTHX4, PgTHX5, PgTHX24, PgTHX30 potential through phytohormonal signalling pathways. Among these, GT-3b member, was localized nucleus self-transactivation ability. Overexpression PgTHX24 positively regulated stress-related markers transformed calli drought conditions. Promoter activity also highlighted stress-inducible nature PgTHX24's promoter. Overall, our findings provide comprehensive understanding framework for further functional characterization to understand regulatory millet's Thirty-five millet, diversity. its

Promoters are one of the most important components for many gene-based research as they can fine-tune precise gene expression. Many unique plant promoters have been characterized, but strong with dual expression in both monocot and dicot systems still lacking. In this study, we attempted to make such a promoter by combining specific domains from monocot-infecting pararetroviral-based sugarcane bacilliform virus (SCBV) banana streak (BSV) dicot-infecting mirabilis mosaic (MMV). The generated chimeric promoters, MS, SM, MB, BM, were tested further validated transgenic tobacco plants. We found that developed species-specific (monocot or dicot), which depended on their respective core (CP) region. Furthermore, knowledge, deletion-hybrid evaluated, led development dual-expressing promoter, MSD3, high efficiency (GUS GFP reporter genes) rice, pearl millet, conclude MSD3 be an genetic tool will valuable biology application.

Abstract The industrial bast fibre crop jute ( Corchorus sp.) is known for its long lignocellulosic multi-utility fibres. Information on lignification limited, and many enzymes in the lignin pathway are not well documented. One such enzyme laccase (EC 1.10.3.2), involved final polymerization step of lignification. A whole-genome search white capsularis ) revealed 34 putative CcaLAC genes. Phylogenetic analysis categorized these genes into six groups, with 17 predominantly expressed phloem tissue, 9 leaf, 4 xylem roots. steady increase gene expression, from plantlets to harvest, was observed several s. Some were selected further based homology Arabidopsis pathway-modifying laccases AtLAC s). Transcriptomics data confirmed their expression tissues, some showing significantly lower dlpf , a low-lignin fibre-containing mutant. Changes under abiotic stresses like ABA hormone copper heavy metal. Target sites Ath-miR397a Ath-miR397b predicted 11 s, respectively, suggesting possible post-transcriptional modification via microRNA. Subcellular localization showed s multiple plant cell compartments. Protein structure predictions up 10 motifs CcaLACs, 18 containing transmembrane helices. Overall, CcaLAC28 CcaLAC32 likely process (bast) jute. Modifying could enhance our understanding potentially lead development fibres, meeting high demands globally.
