Genome-wide identification of lipoxygenase gene family in cotton and functional characterization in response to abiotic stresses

Abstract Background Plant lipoxygenase (LOX) genes are members of the non-haeme iron-containing dioxygenase family that catalyze the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids into functionally diverse oxylipins. The LOX family genes have been extensively studied under biotic and abiotic stresses, bot...
