Abstract:

Somatic embryogenesis receptor kinases (SERKs) constitute a small gene family and are functionally conserved in plants with a specific role in embryogenesis and possibly in other developmental processes. The present investigation was aimed at identifying the SERK gene (s) present in sorghum genome through in silico studies. Here we report two SERK genes (SbSERK1, and SbSERK2) from sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.) by the comparative analysis of known SERK cDNA sequences from sorghum and other plants and their chromosomal location on sorghum. The sequences of SbSERK1 and SbSERK2 were more similar to that of ZmSERK1 and ZmSERK2 genes of maize. A putative SbSERK3 was also identified which was more similar to the rice OsSERK1.
