Bioinformatic Analysis and Hormone-Responsive Expression Profiling of CsDof3 and CsDof36 in Cucumber

Jiaxin Li, Zijuan Huang, Binbin Yin, Xiangnan Meng, Haiyan Fan, Yongbo Yu & Juyong Zhao · Biotechnology Journal International · 2026

Background: Dof (DNA-binding with one finger) transcription factors are plant-specific zinc-finger proteins that regulate growth, development, hormone signalling, and stress responses. However, the structural features and hormone-response patterns of most cucumber Dof members rem...
