Abstract:Plant glutathione peroxidases (GPXs) consist of non-heme thiol peroxidases that are vital in maintaining hydrogen peroxide homeostasis and regulating plant environmental stress responses. A comparative genomic analysis of the GPX gene family in Ipomoea trifida and I. triloba using their respective genomes was performed. Six GPX genes were identified in each species, which were unevenly located in 4 of the 15 chromosomes of the closest ancestors of the sweet potato genomes (I. trifida and I. triloba). The prese… Show more
