Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the PsKIN gene family in pea.

ABSTRACT: Peas (Pisum sativum L.) serve as a vital model for plant development and stress research. The kinesin (KIN) gene family, encoding essential motor proteins, remains understudied in peas. Our research conducted a comprehensive genomic analysis of the KIN genes in peas, identifying 105 genes categorized into seven subfamilies based on evolutionary relationships, gene structures, conserved motifs, and interaction networks. A comparative analysis with Arabidopsis and soybean KIN gene families showed a non-uniform distribution of PsKIN genes across subfamilies. Homology analysis revealed that the PsKIN family has undergone segmental duplication and is under negative selection pressures, with conserved genes on chromosomes Ps5, Ps6, and Ps7
