title: [Functional annotation of rice WRKY transcription factors based on their transcriptional features].
abstract: Transcription factors regulate alteration of transcription levels. Recently, huge amount of transcriptomic data are accumulated via the application of high throughput sequencing technology, and it is reasonable to postulate that in-depth analysis of transcription data could be used to enhance gene annotation. In this study, we chose the gene family of rice WRKY transcription factors. Based on literature search, the transcriptional data under different biological processes, including biotic and abiotic stress, development, and nutrient absorption and hormone treatments were analyzed systematically. To the end, we summarize the list of differentially expressed WRKY genes. We also expect that such information will enrich their functional annotation and also provide direct clues for subsequent functional studies.
