Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of the Phytochrome Gene Family in Peanut.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the potential role of phytochrome (PHY) in peanut growth and its response to environmental fluctuations, eight candidate AhPHY genes were identified via genome-wide analysis of cultivated peanut. These AhPHY polypeptides were determined to possess acidic and hydrophilic physiochemical properties and exhibit subcellular localization patterns consistent with residence in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the AhPHY gene family members were classified into three subgroups homologous to the PHYA/B/E progenitors of Arabidopsis. AhPHY genes within the same clade largely displayed analogous gene structure, conserved motifs, and phosphorylation sites. AhPHY exhibited symmetrical distribution across peanut chromoso
