Bolun Zhi identified 75 Dof transcription factor genes in the tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) genome. The dataset includes phylogenetic classification, gene structure analysis, cis-regulatory element prediction, and expression profiling under cold and magnesium deficiency stress. It was last updated on April 28, 2026.
Use Cases
- Phylogenetic classification of Dof genes based on the described seven subfamilies.
- Analysis of gene structure and motif composition, particularly for the CDF clade.
- Identification of stress- and hormone-responsive cis-regulatory elements.
- Investigation of gene expression dynamics under cold and magnesium deficiency stresses.
- Functional validation of candidate genes, such as NtDof40 and NtDof63, for cold tolerance.
Strengths
- Contains 75 identified NtDof gene members.
- Includes expression profiling data for cold and magnesium deficiency stress responses.
- Provides functional validation via Virus-Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) for two genes.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- The dataset is small (66.2 KB), indicating limited scope.
