Bioinformatics and Expression Pattern Analysis of Heat Shock Proteins 60 Gene(CqHSP60)Family of Quinoa(Chenopodium quinoa Willd.)
In order to explore the structural characteristics,gene function and expression pattern of quinoa HSP60 gene(CqHSP60),the CqHSP60 gene family is identified and systematically analyzed by using bioinformatics meth-ods.The result showes that 37 CqHSP60 genes are identified in the quinoa genome,which can be divided into 3 phylogenetic subgroups according to subcellular structure localization,and each subgroup has similar motif and gene structure.Through RNA-Seq data,the gene expression of tissues at different developmental stages and different treatments such as heat,drought and salt stress are analyzed.CqHSP60 genes respond to different stress,and ex-press higher in flower clusters and dried seeds.Multiple stress-associated cis-regulatory elements are identified in the promoter region of the CqHSP60 gene,suggesting that these genes are subjected to stress responses under multi-ple stresses.
