Genome-wide analysis of WRKY gene family in Cucumis sativus

Abstract: BackgroundWRKY proteins are a large family of transcriptional regulators in higher plant. They are involved in many biological processes, such as plant development, metabolism, and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Prior to the present study, only one full-length cucumber WRKY protein had been reported. The recent publication of the draft genome sequence of cucumber allowed us to conduct a genome-wide search for cucumber WRKY proteins, and to compare these positively identified proteins with their homo… Show more

“…Most SiWRKY genes were highly expressed in roots, whereas a few SiWRKY genes were expressed in developing seeds. This is consistent with observations made in other plants, including rice [18], cucumber [33], grape [42], apple [13], cassava [30], cotton [43], physic nut [41], and cabbage [44]. Our results revealed that SiWRKY genes are expressed tissuespecifically and the high expression levels observed in roots might reflect their roles in responses to abiotic and biotic stresses that first affect plants below ground.…”

“…The WRKY transcription factor family is one of the most important gene families involved in plant development and stress responses, and WRKY genes have been identified in many species, including Arabidopsis, rice, grape, maize, and cucumber [15,20,[31][32][33]. Table 3 summarizes the numbers and types of WRKY genes found in higher plants, and illustrates their diversity among species that have had their genomes sequenced; the number of genes ranges from 55 in cucumber to 343 in rapeseed [34].…”

“…For instance, they have been identified and classified in Arabidopsis (Eulgem et al, 2000), Oryza sativa (Xie. et al, 2005;Wu et al, 2005;Ross et al, 2007) Hordeum vulgare (Mangelsen et al, 2008), Cucumissativus (Ling et al, 2011) and Brachypodium distachyon (Tripathi et al, 2012). The WRKY gene family has 72 members in Arabidopsis (Eulgem et al, 2000), however in this article, we have identified 43 stress responsive WRKY genes according to Rushton et al, (2010) who reviewed and categorized different WRKYs in response to different stresses including abiotic, biotic and multiple stresses.…”

“…There are many reports of bioinformatics studies of WRKY transcription factors in plant species. For example, computational genome wide analysis of WRKYs have been done recently in Gossypium raimondii (Cai et al, 2014), Cucumis sativus (Ling et al, 2011), Lotus japonicas , Brachypodium distachyon (Wen et al, 2014), Vitis vinifera , Fragariavesca (Miao et al, 2012), Helianthus annuus (Giacomelli et al, 2010), rice and Arabidopsis (Wu et al, 2005). Thus, analysis of stress responsive genes within and between various plant species for different kinds of stresses would reveal a number of pivotal attributes spanning across the major plant divisions like dicots and monocots (Shaik et al, 2013).…”

“…A large number of WRKY genes have been isolated and characterized in various plant species, such as in Arabidopsis (Eulgem et al, 2000), Zea mays (Wei et al, 2012), Gossypium (Dou et al, 2014), Medicago truncatula ( and Nan, 2014), Cucumis sativus (Ling et al, 2011), B. rapa , Vitis vinifera , Carica papaya (Pan and Jiang, 2014), Coffea arabica (Ramiro et al, 2010), Populus , Hevea brasiliensis , Coptis japonica (Kato et al, 2007), and Catharanthus roseus (Yang et al, 2013). However, knowledge on WRKYs of G. biloba remains limited.…”
