Abstract

The functional significance and evolutionary relationships of BURP domain-containing genes unique to plants is of interest. Network analysis reveals different associations of BURP proteins with other proteins and functional terms, throwing light on their involvement in various biological processes and pathways. The gene expression data reveals that BURP genes are affected by salinity stress, reflecting diverse expression patterns in roots and shoots.
