Abstract

Transcription factors (TFs) play fundamental roles in the developmental processes of all living organisms. Squamosa Promoter Binding Protein-like (SBP/SBP-Box) is a major family of plant-specific TFs, which plays important roles in multiple processes involving plant growth and development. While some work has been done, there is a lot more that is yet to be discovered in the hexaploid wheat SBP (TaSBP) family. With the completion of whole genome sequencing, genome-wide analysis of SBPs in common hexaploid wheat is now possible. In this study, we used protein–protein Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLASTp) to hunt the newly released reference genome sequence of hexaploid wheat (Chinese spring). Seventy-four TaSBP proteins (belonging to 56 genes) were identified and clustered into five groups. Gene structure and motif analysis indicated that most TaSBPs have relatively conserved exon–intron arrangements and motif composition. Analysis of transcriptional data showed that many TaSBP genes responded to some biological and abiotic stresses with different expression patterns. Moreover, three TaSBP genes were generally expressed in the majority of tissues throughout the wheat growth and also responded to many environmental biotic and abiotic stresses. Collectively, the detailed analyses presented here will help in understanding the roles of the TaSBP and also provide a reference for the further study of its biological function in wheat.
