As a plant-specific transcription factor, vascular plant One-Zinc-finger (VOZ) is involved in the regulation of many biological processes.  VOZ  genes in tomato have not been analysed comprehensively so far. In this study, two  SIVOZ s were identified on a genome-wide scale in tomato and analysed using various bioinformatics methods. According to Ka/Ks ratio, SlVOZ proteins are being changed by evolutionary processes to adapt to changing growth and stress conditions. Protein structure and phylogenetic analyses also indicated that transcriptional regulations of  SlVOZs  were controlled in a specific manner related to developmental stages and abiotic stress conditions. Digital expression results, in particular, showed that  SlVOZ s are not only active during different growth status of tomato but are also involved in abiotic stress response mechanism. Nonetheless,  SlVOZ1  is expressed higher in both developmental stages and under salt stress conditions, confirmed by RT-qPCR. The co-expression maps constructed using RNA-seq data showed that  SlVOZ2  was associated with the genes involved in hormonal regulation, formation of fruit shape, secondary wall biosynthesis and in plant development. Overall, it can be concluded that  SlVOZ s are not only important for plant growth and development but may also be part of the salt stress response mechanism.
