Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of Auxin Response Factor (ARF) Gene Family in Panax ginseng Indicates Its Possible Roles in Root Development.

ABSTRACT: Auxin-responsive factors (ARFs) are an important class of transcription factors and are an important component of auxin signaling. This study conducted a genome-wide analysis of the ARF gene family in ginseng and presented its findings. Fifty-three ARF genes specific to ginseng (PgARF) were discovered after studying the ginseng genome. The coding sequence (CDS) has a length of 1092-4098 base pairs and codes for a protein sequence of 363-1565 amino acids. Among them, PgARF32 has the least number of exons (2), and PgARF16 has the most exons (18). These genes were then distributed into six subgroups based on the results obtained from phylogenetic analysis. In each subgroup, the majority of the PgARF genes displayed comparable intron/exon structures. PgARF ge
