Systematic Analysis of NRAMP Family Genes in Areca catechu and Its Response to Zn/Fe Deficiency Stress.

ABSTRACT: Areca catechu is a commercially important medicinal plant widely cultivated in tropical regions. The natural resistance-associated macrophage protein (NRAMP) is widespread in plants and plays critical roles in transporting metal ions, plant growth, and development. However, the information on NRAMPs in A. catechu is quite limited. In this study, we identified 12 NRAMPs genes in the areca genome, which were classified into five groups by phylogenetic analysis. Subcellular localization analysis reveals that, except for NRAMP2, NRAMP3, and NRAMP11, which are localized in chloroplasts, all other NRAMPs are localized on the plasma membrane. Genomic distribution analysis shows that 12 NRAMPs genes are unevenly spread on seven chromosomes. Sequence analysis show
