Schema of the workflow to identify ARF genes in C. arietinum. Medicago ARF proteins were used as query to search for orthologs (BLASTP) in the predicted chickpea genome. The same procedure was applied using Arabidopsis ARF proteins. The output was further examined by manual curation and redundant and/or invalid genes were removed from the data set. This step resulted in 24 complete chickpea ARF protein sequences. Those candidates were blasted against the chickpea genome to identify any possible unpredicted gene
