Identification and Characterization of Histone Modification Gene Families and Their Expression Patterns During Pod and Seed Development in Peanut.

ABSTRACT: Histone methylation and acetylation play potential roles in plant growth and development through various histone modification (HM) genes. However, studies of HM genes are still limited in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), a globally important oilseed crop. Here, comprehensive identification and investigation of HM genes were performed using the whole genome of peanut, and a total of 207 AhHMs encoding 108 histone methyltransferases, 51 histone demethylases, 16 histone acetylases, and 32 histone deacetylases were identified. Detailed analysis of these AhHMs, including chromosome locations, gene structures, protein motifs, and protein-protein interactions, was performed. Tandem, segmental, transposed, dispersed, and whole-genome duplications were involved in the evolution an
