Genome-Wide Identification of WRKY in Suaeda australis against Salt Stress
Suaeda australis is a typical halophyte due to its high salt tolerance. The WRKY gene family plays crucial roles in responding to salt stress, yet reports on WRKY genes in S. australis are scarce. In this study, we identified 47 WRKY genes in the S. australis genome. We then conducted comprehensive analyses, including investigations into their chromosomal locations, gene structures, phylogenetic relationships, promoter regions, conserved motifs, and expression profiles. The 47 WRKY genes were classified into three main groups (with six subfamilies). Among nine chromosomes, S. australis displayed an unequal pattern of distribution. The analysis of regulatory elements revealed that WRKY promoters were associated with light responsiveness, anaerobic induction, drought inducibility, meristem expression, and gibberellin responsiveness. Expression pattern analyses highlighted the role of several SaWRKYs, including Sau00527, Sau00681, Sau18413, Sau19293, Sau00810, Sau05901, Sau09209, Sau12457, and Sau14103. These genes exhibited higher expression levels under ST2 compared to ST1, indicating a significant response to salt stress. Higher SOD, POD, and CAT activity, as well as increased MDA and H2O2 content, were observed in ST2, in line with the expression patterns and our RTq-PCR results. Our study offers a profound understanding of the evolutionary development of S. australis WRKY members, clarifying their vital functions in responding to salt stress. Along with crucial genomic data, these findings establish a solid foundation for investigating the mechanisms of salt-stress regulation in S. australis. This research holds substantial scientific and ecological importance, offering potential contributions to the conservation of S. australis and the utilization of saline soil resources.
