Background: WRKY proteins comprise a large family of transcription factors that play vital roles in many aspects of physiological processes and adaption to environment. However, little information was available about the WRKY genes in teak (Tectona grandis). The recent release of the whole-genome sequence of teak allowed us to perform a genome-wide investigation into the organization and expression profiling of teak WRKY genes. Results: In the present study, 102 teak WRKY (TgWRKY) genes were identified and renamed as per their positions on chromosome and scaffolds. According to their structural and phylogenetic analysis, the 102 TgWRKYs were further classified into three main groups with seceral subgroups. The segmental duplication event played a major role in the expansion of teak WRKY gene family and three WGD events were inferred. Expression profiles derived from transcriptome data exhibited distinct expression patterns of TgWRKY genes in various tissues and inresponse to different abiotic stress.Conclusions: 102 TgWRKY genes were identified in teak and the structure of their encoded proteins, their evolutionary characteristics and expression patterns were examined in this study. This study generated an important resource that will provide helpful information for further exploration of the TgWRKY genes role in the regulatory mechanism in response to abiotic stresses. |
