A bird's-eye view: exploration of the flavin-containing monooxygenase superfamily in common wheat.

ABSTRACT: The Flavin Monooxygenase (FMO) gene superfamily in plants is involved in various processes most widely documented for its involvement in auxin biosynthesis, specialized metabolite biosynthesis, and plant microbial defense signaling. The roles of FMOs in defense signaling and disease resistance have recently come into focus as they may present opportunities to increase immune responses in plants including leading to systemic acquired resistance, but are not well characterized. We present a comprehensive catalogue of FMOs found in genomes across vascular plants and explore, in depth, 170 wheat TaFMO genes for sequence architecture, cis-acting regulatory elements, and changes due to Transposable Element insertions. A molecular phylogeny separates TaFMOs into three
