Genome-Wide Comprehensive Analysis of the <i>GASA</i> Gene Family in <i>Populus</i>

Gibberellic acid-stimulated <i>Arabidopsis</i> (GASA) proteins, as cysteine-rich peptides (CRPs), play roles in development and reproduction and biotic and abiotic stresses. Although the <i>GASA</i> gene family has been identified in plants, the knowledge about GASAs in <i...
