Identification of ANS gene regulating fruit color in jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill. cv. Lingwuchangzao) and analysis of its expression under elevated temperature and drought stress.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The anthocyanin synthase (ANS) gene is pivotal in plant anthocyanin biosynthesis, significantly influencing fruit coloration. Despite extensive on various studies, there remains a notable absence of research on the regulatory functions of the ANS gene in the 'Lingwuchangzao' variety under elevated temperature and drought stress.

Results

In this study, 107 ZjANS genes were identified. Analyses of their physicochemical properties and gene structures revealed that most are localized in the cytosol and nucleus, with only seven ZjANS genes exhibiting basic characteristics. All genes contained the conserved domains 2OG-FeII_Oxy and DIOX-N. Chromosomal localization and Ka/Ks analysis indicated that these genes are distributed across 12 chromosomes, with 22 tandem gene pa
