Comparative Genomics, Evolution, and Drought-Induced Expression of Dehydrin Genes in Model <i>Brachypodium</i> Grasses

Dehydration proteins (dehydrins, DHNs) confer tolerance to water-stress deficit in plants. We performed a comparative genomics and evolutionary study of DHN genes in four model <i>Brachypodium</i> grass species. Due to limited knowledge on dehydrin expression under water deprivation stre...
