Abstract:Expansin is an indispensable cell wall protein, involved in plant growth and resistance to stress. Based on the sequencing genome data, a total of 34 expansin genes were identified on 14 chromosomes in Salix purpurea, which were grouped into 4 subfamilies. The analysis of the physicochemical properties showed that most expansin proteins were in weakly alkaline, had a higher aliphatic index and more stable protein structure. The gene sequence was more conservative among the members in the same subfamily with th… Show more
