Description

Maize is the most commonly cultivated food crop in global. Terrestrial plants must cope with environmental changes including drought, excess salt, heat, cold, toxic metals and nutrient deficiency. Protein phosphatase and kinase-regulated signal transduction play a vital role in climate resilience in plants. As a large family of protein kinases, sucrose non-fermenting-1 (SNF1)-related kinases (SnRKs) were found and functionally verified in many plants. In plants, the SnRK family has expanded and diverged into three subfamilies (SnRK1, SnRK2, and SnRK3). However, research concerning the role of SnRK genes is still rare in maize. With the rapid progress of molecular biology and the whole-genome sequencing of maize, it becomes possible for us to have a comprehensive understanding of ZmSnRK gene families. In this book, we indentified 60 candidate ZmSnRK genes by bioinformatic analysis.
