ABSTRACT
Zinc (Zn)- and iron (Fe)-regulating transport-like proteins (ZIPs) are a class of proteins crucial for metal uptake and transport in plants, particularly for Zn and Fe absorption and distribution. These proteins ensure the balance of trace elements essential for plant growth, development, and metabolic activities. However, the role of the rice (Oryza sativa) OsZIP gene family in manganese (Mn) and selenium (Se) transport remains underexplored. This research conducted an all-sided analysis of the rice OsZIPs and identified 16 OsZIP sequences. Phylogenetic analysis categorized the OsZIPs predominantly within the three subfamilies. The expression levels of OsZIPs in rice root and leaf subjected to Mn and Se toxicity stress were examined through quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The findings revealed significant differential expression of many OsZIPs under these conditions, indicating a potential regulating effect in the response of rice to Mn and Se toxicity. This work lays a foundation for further functional studies of OsZIPs, enhancing our understanding of the response mechanisms of rice to Mn and Se toxicity and their roles in growth, development, and environmental adaptation.
