Wheat ARM Gene Family: Identification, Expression, and Stress Response Analysis

32 ARM repeat genes were identified in bread wheat, with family expansion driven by polyploidy and segmental duplication. The study, authored by Jingxu Li and uploaded in 2026, analyzed gene structures, phylogeny, and stress responses across six plant species. RNA-seq and qRT-PCR validated specific gene responses to biotic and abiotic stresses, such as powdery mildew and low temperature.

Use Cases

• Phylogenetic analysis of ARM gene families based on the identified sequences from six plant species.
• Studying gene family expansion mechanisms based on the described polyploidy-driven segmental duplications.
• Predicting stress-responsive cis-acting elements based on the promoter analysis mentioned in the description.
• Validating gene expression patterns under stress conditions based on the RNA-seq and qRT-PCR results for specific TaARM genes.

Strengths

• Includes data from six plant species, totaling 98 identified ARM genes.
• Analysis integrates genomic identification, phylogenetic classification, and experimental validation via RNA-seq and qRT-PCR.
• Specific stress-response roles are identified for genes like TaARM13, TaARM22, TaARM18, and TaARM26.

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 very small at 20.3 KB, indicating limited scope, likely containing summary analysis tables rather than raw sequencing data.
