Genome-Wide Identification, Evolution, and Expression Analysis of the WD40 Subfamily in Oryza Genus.

ABSTRACT: The WD40 superfamily is widely found in eukaryotes and has essential subunits that serve as scaffolds for protein complexes. WD40 proteins play important regulatory roles in plant development and physiological processes, such as transcription regulation and signal transduction; it is also involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis. In rice, only OsTTG1 was found to be associated with anthocyanin biosynthesis, and evolutionary analysis of the WD40 gene family in multiple species is less studied. Here, a genome-wide analysis of the subfamily belonging to WD40-TTG1 was performed in nine AA genome species: Oryza sativa ssp. japonica, Oryza sativa ssp. indica, Oryza rufipogon, Oryza glaberrima, Oryza meridionalis, Oryza barthii, Oryza
