Genome-wide identification and comparative evolution of 14-3-3 gene family members in five Brassicaceae species.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The 14-3-3 proteins are highly conserved regulatory eukaryotic proteins, which are crucial in growth, development, and stress responses. However, systematic characterization of the 14-3-3 gene family in Brassicaceae species and their evolutionary relationships have not been comprehensively reported.

Results

This study conducted genome-wide identification, structural characteristics, and comparative evolutionary analysis of 14-3-3 gene family members in Arabidopsis thaliana, A. lyrata, A. pumila, Camelina sativa, and Brassica oleracea using comparative genomics. Overall, a total of 108 14-3-3 genes, which were phylogenetically classified into ε and non-ε groups were identified in the five species, with the non-ε members exhibiting more similar exon-intron structure
