- Observation Fifty IGT genes were identified across three Saccharum species.
- Observation Five SsIGT genes were identified in S. spontaneum (AP85-441).
- Observation Ten SoIGT genes were identified in S. officinarum (LA-purple).
- Observation Thirty-five ScIGT genes were identified in S. hybrid (XTT22).
- Observation Phylogenetic analysis classified the IGT genes into DRO, LAZY and TAC subfamilies.
- Observation Promoter analysis revealed cis-regulatory elements linked to stress, hormone responses and growth regulation.
- Mechanism A miRNA prediction indicated post-transcriptional regulation in sugarcane IGT genes.
- Observation Protein network analysis highlighted conserved interactions between sugarcane IGT proteins and maize homologs.
