Genome-wide Analysis of Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Family Genes and Expression Analysis in Response to Drought and Salt Stresses in Hibiscus hamabo Sieb. et Zucc
The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors is one of the most significant and biggest in plants. It is involved in the regulation of both growth and development, as well as stress response. Numerous members of the bHLH family have been found and characterized in woody plants i...

description | The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors is one of the most significant and biggest in plants. It is involved in the regulation of both growth and development, as well as stress response. Numerous members of the bHLH family have been found and characterized in woody plants in recent years. However, no systematic study of the bHLH gene family has been published for Hibiscus hamabo Sieb. et Zucc. In this research, we identified 162 bHLH proteins (HhbHLHs) from the genomic and transcriptomic datasets of H. hamabo, which were phylogenetically divided into 19 subfamilies. According to a gene structural study, the number of exon-introns in HhbHLHs varied between zero and seventeen. MEME research revealed that the majority of HhbHLH proteins contained three conserved motifs, 1, 4, and 5. The examination of promoter cis-elements revealed that the majority of HhbHLH genes had several cis-elements involved in plant growth and development and abiotic stress responses. In addition, the overexpression of HhbHLH2 increased salt and drought stress tolerance in Arabidopsis. |
