Genome-wide identification of VQ motif-containing proteins and their expression profiles under abiotic stresses in maize

VQ motif-containing proteins play crucial roles in abiotic stress responses in plants. Recent studies have shown that some VQ proteins physically interact with WRKY transcription factors to activate downstream genes. In the present study, we identified and characterized genes encoding VQ motif-conta...
