Summary: The ABA signaling pathway plays a vital role in abiotic stress response and development in chickpea. Through gene identification, protein modeling, and gene expression analysis, key genes involved in this pathway were identified and their overlapping roles in drought, ABA response, and seed development were revealed. In-silico interaction analysis also showed the functional relevance of these proteins. Overall, understanding the core components of the ABA signaling pathway in chickpea provides valuable insights for breeding stress-tolerant and high-yielding varieties.

Summary: In this study, a genome-wide analysis of serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) in wheat was performed, identifying 12 TaSHMT genes classified into different groups. The results showed that these genes were mainly expressed in leaves and stems during the seedling stage and could respond to various abiotic stress. The chromosomal location, synteny, and cis-elements analysis of TaSHMTs were also investigated, along with gene ontology annotation and protein interaction analysis.

Summary: In this study, 18 TaCHYR genes were identified and classified in wheat. The results showed that these genes play important roles in the growth, development and stress responses of wheat. The expression of certain TaCHYR genes inhibited the growth of yeast cells under salt and dehydration stress. Furthermore, gene ontology annotation, protein interaction and miRNA regulatory network analysis provided candidate genes for further functional investigations.

Summary: In this study, 55 wheat cystatins (TaCystatins) were identified and divided into three groups based on conserved gene structures and peptide motifs. Homoeolog analysis showed that both homoeolog retention percentage and gene duplications contributed to the abundance of the TaCystatin family. Codon usage pattern analysis revealed evident codon usage bias in TaCystatins mainly affected by mutation pressure.

Summary: In this study, 79 GATA genes were identified in wheat and classified into four subfamilies. The analysis of amino acid sequences and expression patterns revealed significant differences among these genes. Furthermore, comparisons with other plant genomes provided insights into the evolutionary characteristics. These findings are important for future gene function analysis, molecular breeding, and stress response research in wheat.

Summary: In this study, we identified nine CBL genes and 28 CIPK genes from D. catenatum and classified them into four and six subgroups, respectively. These genes play important roles in stress responses and hormone signaling in plants, and are involved in drought, heat, cold, and salt responses. The results establish the CBL-CIPK signaling pathway and provide a molecular basis for improving D. catenatum stress resistance in the future.

Summary: In this study, a total of 76 wheat G2-like gene family members were detected and categorized into three groups based on gene structure and protein motif analyses. These genes were unevenly distributed in the wheat genome. Segmental duplication and different expression patterns were observed among the TaG2-like genes. The study also found that the expressions of TaG2-like genes were significantly affected under abiotic stress.

Summary: Transcriptomic analyses of developing wheat anthers under heat stress identified key genes involved in hormone biosynthesis, signal transduction, heat shock response, and anther development. Heat stress disrupted pollen development in heat-sensitive wheat cultivars but had no visible effect on heat-tolerant cultivars, leading to reduced grain yield in sensitive cultivars. Genes identified in this study may serve as potential molecular markers for breeding heat-tolerant wheat lines.

Summary: The study concludes that pre-sowing silicon treatment can significantly improve the morpho-physiological and biochemical characteristics of wheat under drought and heat stress. Silicon treatment also enhances the abiotic stress tolerance of wheat by increasing antioxidant activity and osmolyte concentration, and improving water stress indices.

Summary: This study reveals the crosstalk mechanism between methyl jasmonate and abscisic acid signaling in regulating water use efficiency and drought stress tolerance in Populus euphratica. By conducting molecular experiments and phenotype analysis, it was found that PeJAZ2 acts as a positive regulator in MeJA and ABA signaling, enhancing drought tolerance and water use efficiency in poplar through ABA-induced stomatal closure and hydrogen peroxide production.

Summary: In this study, a heat shock protein TaHSP17.4 was identified in wheat and found to be significantly induced under drought, salt, and heat stress. It was shown to interact with HSP70/HSP90 organizing protein (HOP) TaHOP, playing a crucial role in stress tolerance. Overexpression of TaHSP17.4 and TaHOP resulted in higher proline content, lower malondialdehyde content, and enhanced tolerance to stress.

Summary: This study used transcriptome analysis to explore the potential mechanism within critical stages of grain development in wheat. The results revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum plays a significant role in protein quality control during the initial stages of cell division. Furthermore, different genes involved in protein synthesis, folding, and trafficking pathways contribute to the observed high-quality characteristics of gluten protein during grain enlargement.

Summary: This study analyzed leaf rolling degree in wheat and identified a major locus, named LERD1, on chromosome 7A that is associated with leaf rolling degree. Twenty-one candidate genes were predicted in this locus, and TraesCS7A01G543300, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, was identified as the most likely candidate gene for LERD1.
