Reviewer/Referee Access Agreement

You have reached this page using a special URL that is intended to be used by journal editors and reviewers or referees of a paper that is under consideration for publication. This URL gives you access to the submitted data and metadata associated with analyses and results presented in the paper under review. Please carefully examine the data paying special attention to the following:
  • The citation data (authors, year, citation, abstract) should be complete, except for information that is not yet known (e.g. volume or page numbers).
  • Verify that nexus files are error-free and executable by software programs (e.g. PAUP, Mesquite, MacClade, etc). Please make sure that the taxon labels for trees are identical, or a subset of, the taxon labels in data matrices connected by way of an analysis. If taxon labels in trees do not match with taxon labels in associated data matrices, the data will not be useful to the scientific community.
  • Verify that data are not missing and that opportunities to supply valuable metadata are not overlooked. For example, TreeBASE can store Genbank accession numbers, museum voucher IDs, latitude and longitudes for specimen localities, character names and character state names for morphological data, etc. Including these metadata are sometimes overlooked by submitting authors, yet sharing this metadata is extremely valuable to the scientific community. Please use your power as a reviewer to encourage the sharing of richly-annotated metadata.
  • Verify that analyses are not missing and that, where possible, analysis entries include software commands (e.g. the contents of a PAUP block or MrBayes block) so that analyses can be replicated easily (e.g. commands that describe substitution models, data partitions, and heuristic search parameters).
  • Verify that taxon labels are mapped against TreeBASE's taxonomic dictionary. Data in TreeBASE can only be found using a taxon name search if the taxon labels are properly mapped.
By clicking the 'OK' button below, you agree to keep these data confidential; you agree not to retain these data after completing your report to the journal editor; you agree not to use these data or knowledge of these data for the purposes of your research until and unless the paper under review has been published and the data have been made available to the general public; you agree to keep the URL confidential.

Abstract

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinases (MAPKKKs) as the important components of MAPK cascades, play a crucial role in plant growth and development as well as stresses response. Although this family has been systematically studied in many plant species, little is known about MAPKKK genes in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), especially those involved in the regulatory network of stress processes. In this study, we identified 155 wheat MAPKKK genes through a genome-wide search method based on the latest available wheat genome information, of which 29 belonged to MEKK, 11 to ZIK and 115 to Raf subfamily, respectively. Then, chromosome localization, gene structure and conserved protein motifs and phylogenetic relationship as well as co-expression network of these TaMAPKKKs were systematically analyzed and supported the prediction. Furthermore, a total of 11 homologous groups between A, B and D sub-genome and 24 duplication pairs among them were detected, which contributed to the expansion of wheat MAPKKK gene families. Finally, the expression profiles of these MAPKKKs during development and under different abiotic stresses were investigated using the RNA-seq data. Additionally, 10 tissue-specific and 4 salt-responsive TaMAPKKK genes were selected to validate their expression level through qRT-PCR analysis. This study for the first time report the genome organization, evolutionary features and expression profiles of the wheat MAPKKK gene family, which lays the foundation for further functional analysis of wheat MAPKKK genes, and will contribute to better understanding the roles and regulatory mechanism of MAPKKKs in wheat.
