Phylogenetic and comparative gene expression analysis of barley (<it>Hordeum vulgare</it>) WRKY transcription factor family reveals putatively retained functions between monocots and dicots

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>WRKY proteins belong to the WRKY-GCM1 superfamily of zinc finger transcription factors that have been subject to a large plant-specific diversification. For the cereal crop barley (<it>Hordeum vulgare</it>), three differe...
