Abstract The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) is an important class of transcription factors in plants, playing a critical role in plant growth and development and responses to biotic and abiotic stress. Due to gene presence/absence variations, it is limited to identify bZIP genes based on the reference genome. Therefore, we performed the bZIP gene family analysis in the rice pan-genome. By employing a rice pan-genome, ninety-four OsbZIPs (72 core genes and 22 variable genes) were identified and divided into 11 groups in a phylogenetic tree. Based upon Ka/Ks values in 33 accessions, OsbZIPs were subjected to different selection… More >
