Genome-wide identification and analysis of the invertase gene family in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) reveals NtNINV10 participating the sugar metabolism.

ABSTRACT: Sucrose (Suc) is directly associated with plant growth and development as well as tolerance to various stresses. Invertase (INV) enzymes played important role in sucrose metabolism by irreversibly catalyzing Suc degradation. However, genome-wide identification and function of individual members of the INV gene family in Nicotiana tabacum have not been conducted. In this report, 36 non-redundant NtINV family members were identified in Nicotiana tabacum including 20 alkaline/neutral INV genes (NtNINV1-20), 4 vacuolar INV genes (NtVINV1-4), and 12 cell wall INV isoforms (NtCWINV1-12). A comprehensive analysis based on the biochemical characteristics, the exon-intron structures, the chromosomal location and the evolutionary analysis revealed the conservation
