Identification of CaM and CML genes in chickpea reveals their roles in growth and stress response.

Key Points

This research aims to identify and characterize the CaM and CML gene families in chickpea to determine their roles in plant development and stress responses.
Conducted a genome-wide analysis of CaM and CML genes in chickpea.
Performed gene structure analysis to assess intron presence.
Mapped chromosomal locations of identified genes.
Executed Ka/Ks analysis to study evolutionary patterns of gene pairs.
Carried out promoter analysis to identify regulatory elements associated with stress and development.
Identified six CaM and twenty-three CML genes in chickpea.
Found that twenty-one out of twenty-three CML genes were intron-less, while CaMs were rich in introns.
Mapped thirty genes across seven chromosomes, with three located in scaffold regions.
Phylogenetic analysis revealed five orthologous groups, with group V containing the most members.
Identified cis-acting elements in promoters linked to abiotic stress and growth processes.
