GENOME-WIDE INVESTIGATION OF HSF GENES IN SESAME REVEALS THEIR SEGMENTAL DUPLICATION EXPANSION AND THEIR ACTIVE ROLE IN DROUGHT STRESS RESPONSE
Sesame is a survivor crop cultivated for ages in arid areas under high temperatures and limited water conditions. Since its entire genome has been sequenced, revealing evolution and functional characterization of its abiotic stress genes became a hot topic. In this study, we performed a whole-genome...
