GATA-binding factor (GATA) proteins are the transcription factor (TF) family that are commonly involved in plant growth and development. The GATA TF family has been successfully identified and characterized for various higher plant species, but there is little research on the GATA TF family in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa). In this present study, a total of 32 CqGATA genes were identified and analyzed in the quinoa genome. While the general features of the CqGATA TFs in quinoa were slightly variable, the majority of genes encoding the CqGATA TFs contained two and three exons. Our phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the CqGATA TFs could be classified into four different groups. Gene expression analysis indicated that the expression profiles of the CqGATA genes varied in different tissues. Overall, our study could provide a reference for further functional characterization of the CqGATA genes in quinoa.

Heat shock transcription factors (Hsf-s) have been considered one of the major regulatory proteins that play important roles in various biological processes during the growth and development of plants. Unfortunately, no comprehensive studies of the Hsf family in papaya (Carica papaya), a popular tropical fruit crop, have been performed, even the papaya genome assembly has been released recently. In this study, a total of 18 members of the Hsf family, namely CpHsf-s have been identified in papaya. Based on various computational tools, a systematic characterization of the CpHsf family, such as gene structure, physic-chemical features, categorization, and protein-protein interaction, has been conducted. We found that the physic-chemical properties of the CpHsf proteins were highly variable, while all proteins were hydrophilic and localized in the nucleus. Our classification indicated that the CpHsf proteins could be categorized into three groups, including HsfA, HsfB, and HsfC, and members in the same clade share similar gene structure. According to the previous RNA-Seq datasets, our re-analysis revealed that the CpHsf genes exhibited different expressions in various major organs or tissues during fruit ripening and under the ultra-low temperature stress. Taken together, our study could provide a list of candidate genes for further functional characterization towards the improvement of stress tolerance in papaya.

GATA transcription factors (TFs) are widely recognized as significant regulators, characterized by a DNA-binding domain that consists of a type IV zinc finger motif. This TF family has been widely investigated in numerous higher plant species. The purpose of the present work was to comprehensively analyze the GATA TF in cocoa plant (Theobroma cacao L.) by using various bioinformatics tools. As a result, a total of 24 members of the GATA TFs have been identified and annotated in the assembly of the cocoa plant. According to phylogenetic analysis, these TcGATA proteins were classified into four distinct groups, including groups I (10 members), II (seven members), III (five members), and IV (two members). Next, our investigation indicated that the TcGATA proteins in different groups exhibited a high variation in their physic-chemical features due to their different protein lengths, gene structures, and conserved motif distributions, whereas the TcGATA proteins in the same clade might share the common conserved motifs. Additionally, the gene duplication of the TcGATA genes in the cocoa plant was also investigated. Of our interest, the relative expression levels of the TcGATA genes were investigated according to available transcriptome databases. The results exhibited differential expression patterns of all TcGATA genes in various developmental stages of zygotic and somatic embryogenesis, indicating that these TcGATA genes divergently function during various developmental stages of the zygotic and somatic embryos. Moreover, TcGATA genes were differently expressed under Phytophthora megakarya treatment across different points of treatment and cocoa varieties. To sum up, our findings could provide a basis for a further deep understanding of the GATAs in the cocoa plant.

GATA transcription factors (TFs) play critical roles in regulating various physiological and biochemical processes in plants. However, their functions in grain amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus) remain unexplored. This study identified and characterized 23 GATA TFs (AhGATAs) in grain amaranth through genome-wide bioinformatics analysis. The gene structure, gene duplication, phylogenetic analysis, and protein features were performed. As a result, the AhGATA TF family in grain amaranth exhibited diverse gene structures, including variations in exon-intron organization, with the number of exons ranging from one to eleven. We also found that the AhGATA TF family in grain amaranth could be grouped into four different clades as similar to other higher plant species. Next, the recent RNA-Seq dataset was explored to re-analyze the transcriptional changes of the AhGATA genes in several main organs during the growth and development of grain amaranth plants. We proposed four AhGATA genes, including AhGATA01, 05, 13, and 19, which were exclusively expressed in at least one major organ, such as stems, roots, leaves, maturing seeds, flowers, immature seeds, and green cotyledons. In summary, this current study could provide the basis for further exploration of the GATA gene family functions in plants and enhance our understanding of cellular regulation in plant defense mechanisms.

This study investigates the phospholipase A (PLA) superfamily in cocoa (Theobroma cacao), providing a comprehensive analysis of its genomic organization, structural diversity, and functional roles. A total of 19 PLA1 and 20 PLA2 genes were identified, with detailed assessments of their chromosomal locations, protein properties, and exon-intron structures. Phylogenetic analysis established evolutionary relationships with PLA proteins from other species, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and rice (Oryza sativa). Of our interest, transcriptomic profiling under biotic stress caused by Phytophthora megakarya infection and during embryo development revealed distinct expression patterns, demonstrating the involvement of PLA genes in stress responses and key developmental processes. Taken together, these findings provide valuable insights into the roles of PLA genes in cacao biology and offer a foundation for future applications to improve cacao’s resilience and productivity through genetic and biotechnological strategies.
