WRKY transcription factor (TF) family regulates many functions in plant growth and development and also during biotic and abiotic stress. In this study, 101 TF gene models in and rice were used to conduct evolutionary analysis, gene structure analysis, and motif composition. Co-expression analysis was carried out first by selecting the differentially expressing genes that showed a significant change in response to the pathogens from Rice Oligonucleotide Array Database (ROAD). About 82 genes showed responses to infection by or pv. . Co-expression gene network was constructed using direct neighborhood and context associated inbuilt mode in RiceNetv2 tool. Only 41 genes showed interaction with 2299 non- genes. Variations exist in the structure and evolution of genes among and genotypes which have important implications in their differential roles including disease resistance. genes mediate a complex networking and co-express along with other and non- genes to mediate resistance against fungal and bacterial pathogens in rice.
