Genome-wide identification of calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) family members in Phaseolus vulgaris L. and expression analysis during abiotic stresses
Genome-wide analysis identifies CDPK gene family, revealing expression variations under salt and drought stress in common bean cultivars, implying their role in stress response.
Key Points
Identification of 25 PvCDPK genes in the common bean genome indicates a diverse gene family.
Phylogenetic analysis shows grouping of PvCDPK proteins into three major clades with related species.
Most PvCDPK genes contain six introns and span eight chromosomes, highlighting structural conserved features.
The expression levels of PvCDPK genes vary across common bean cultivars during drought and salt stress conditions.
