Genome-wide analysis of lipoxygenase genes in Coffea arabica and its diploid progenitors

Lipoxygenase proteins (LOXs) play a crucial role in plant growth, development, and defense notably through their involvement in jasmonic acid (JA) biosynthesis. Here, we aimed to identify and characterize genes encoding lipoxygenases in three coffee species, Coffea arabica, Coffe...
