Abstract
Computational identification and annotation of salt stress responsive genes in Solanum melongena L.
Highlights
Solanum melongena L. (Eggplant) is an important plant of family Solanaceae
Identification of new conserved salt stress genes in eggplant All the selected (20) salt stress responsive genes were Identified in S. melongena through insilico analysis of 98,089 Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of S. melongena
Even though some genes didn’t show a high query coverage but presence of the similar conserved domains in reference sequences and S. melongena sequences indicates the potential role of these domains during salt stress
Summary
(Eggplant) is an important plant of family Solanaceae. It possesses pronounced nutritional value and is a rich source of minerals and vitamins. This study is an attempt to identify and annotate the potential orthologues of salt stress responsive genes in eggplant by using a variety of bioinformatics tools (BLASTn, ORF finder, CD search and Clustal W). The salt stress responsive conserved domains were identified in 18 genes by using CD search tool. Salt stress is one of for the treatment of several ailments like the main abiotic stresses faced by plants. The current research is planned at examination of salt stress genes in S. melongena by using a variety of bioinformatics tools like BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool), ORF finder (Open Reading Frame), CD search (Conserved Domain) and Clustal W. Identification of salt stress responsive genes will be a good input for understanding the salt stress responsive method in eggplant
