Characterization and Coexpression Analysis of the TIFY Family Genes in Euryale ferox Related to Leaf Development.

ABSTRACT: TIFYs are plant-specific transcription factors that contain the TIFY structural domain and play an important role in plant leaf growth and development. However, the role played by TIFY in E. ferox (Euryale ferox Salisb.) leaf development has not been investigated. In this study, 23 TIFY genes were identified in E. ferox. Phylogenetic analyses of the TIFY genes showed clustering into three groups (JAZ, ZIM, and PPD). The TIFY domain was shown to be conserved. JAZ was mainly expanded via wholegenome triplication (WGT) in E. ferox. Based on analyses of the TIFY genes in nine species, we found that JAZ has a closer relationship with PPD, in addition to appearing the most recently and expanding most rapidly, leading to the rapid expansion of TIFY
