Genome-wide identification, structural characterization and expression profiling of AP2/ERF gene family in bayberry (Myrica rubra).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bayberry is the most economically significant fruit within the Myricaceae family, having high nutritional and medicinal value. The AP2/ERF family is a class of transcription factors found mainly in plants. However, the bayberry AP2/ERF gene family has not previously been studied.

Results

In this study, 113 members of the bayberry AP2/ERF gene family were identified. According to the phylogenetic tree, the members of this group are divided into three subfamilies, namely AP2, ERF, and DREB. The gene structure and conserved motifs were analyzed. Chromosome localization showed that 95 genes were unevenly distributed on 8 chromosomes and 18 genes were located on the skeleton. Gene collinearity analysis of the bayberry AP2/ERF gene family showed 12 segmental duplication
