Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Profiling Analysis of the CCT Gene Family in Solanum lycopersicum and Solanum melongena.

ABSTRACT: CCT family genes play crucial roles in photoperiodic flowering and environmental stress response; however, there are limited reports in Solanum species with considerable edible and medicinal value. In this study, we conducted genome-wide characterization and expression profiling analysis of the CCT gene family in two Solanum species: tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and eggplant (Solanum melongena L.). A total of 27 SlCCT and 29 SmCCT genes were identified in the tomato and eggplant genomes, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the CCT gene family could be divided into six subgroups (COL I, COL II, COL III, PRR, CMF I, and CMF II) in Oryza sativa and Arabidopsis thaliana. The similarity in the distribution of exon-intron st
