Genome-wide identification of the ZIP gene family in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and expression analysis under different element stress.

The ZIP protein (ZRT, the IRT-like protein) is an important metal transporter that transports Zn, Fe, and other divalent metal ions in plants. In this study, we identified 20 ZIP genes in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). We used bioinformatics methods and renamed them according to their E value in hmmse...
