Genome-wide analysis of the CCT gene family in Liriodendron chinense highlights potential functions in light signaling and chlorophyll biosynthesis
This study provides the first comprehensive characterization of the CCT gene family in L. chinense, revealing its conserved domain structure, diverse regulatory potential, and possible roles in leaf greening, chlorophyll biosynthesis, and light signaling. These findings establish a soild foundation for future functional investigations into the molecular mechanisms governing growth and environmental adaptation in Liriodendron species.
