Quinoa TCP Gene Family Expression and CqTCP11 Stress Response Analysis

20 non-redundant TCP transcription factor genes were identified genome-wide in the stress-tolerant cereal Chenopodium quinoa. The dataset includes expression profiles under salt and drought stress and functional verification data for the CqTCP11 gene. Shanmin Zhou published this research data on figshare in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Identifying candidate genes for stress resistance breeding based on expression data under salt and drought conditions.
• Analyzing phylogenetic relationships and cis-regulatory elements within the TCP transcription factor family.
• Studying tissue-specific gene expression patterns in quinoa.
• Investigating the role of specific genes like CqTCP11 in improving seed germination under abiotic stress.

Strengths

• Identifies 20 specific CqTCP gene members with phylogenetic classification.
• Includes experimental data on gene expression under salt and drought stress.
• Provides functional verification for CqTCP11, showing improved germination rates in transgenic Arabidopsis.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect experimental bias inherent to the specific lab conditions described.
