Implication

Genome-wide analysis reveals twenty-six developmental regulatory genes in chickpea and pigeonpea, highlighting key transcriptional drivers of pod and seed development.

Key Points

Preferential expression of growth-regulating and interacting transcription factors marks developing embryo, pod, and seed tissues in both chickpea and pigeonpea crops.
Phylogenetic relationships classify the identified growth-regulating proteins into eight distinct clades, revealing evolutionary divergence across the examined legume species.
Synteny analysis showed diploid-polyploid gene topology in pigeonpea but not chickpea, and promoter region scans identified diverse regulatory elements.
Highlights valuable genetic resources for pulse crop improvement, where expression profiling may enable targeted breeding for enhanced seed and pod development.
