Genome-Wide Characterization of Solanum tuberosum CCoAOMT Gene Family and Identification of StCCoAOMT Genes Involved in Anthocyanin Biosynthesis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The caffeoyl-CoA-O methyltransferase (CCoAOMT) family plays essential roles in the methylation of various secondary metabolites, including anthocyanins. Despite the wide identification of the CCoAOMT family in plants, the characterization and function of CCoAOMT protein members in Solanum tuberosum remain poorly understood.

Methods and results

In this study, a total of 12 StCCoAOMT members were identified in the genome of S. tuberosum using the Blastp and HMM search and were unevenly located on eight chromosomes. Collinearity analysis revealed that four tandem duplicated gene pairs and two segmental duplicated gene pairs existed in the S. tuberosum genome, demonstrating that duplication events play a key role in the expansion of the CCoAOMT fa
