Genome-wide identification of the RPD3/HDA1 gene family in foxtail millet (Setaria italica) and analysis of their association with plant height
Abstract
The RPD3/HDA1 histone deacetylase family members play crucial roles in plant development, influencing traits such as plant height, stress response and fertility. Although, the RPD3/HDA1 family has been characterized in several plant species, its members and functions in foxtail millet remain largely unknown. In this study, we identified 13 SiRPD3/HDA1 genes in foxtail millet and classified them into four distinct phylogenetic groups. Structural analysis revealed conserved exon-intron patterns and motif compositions within each group, implying functional conservation. Two segmental duplication events were detected. The Ka/Ks ratios (
