Comparative analysis of synteny and functional divergence of APX genes in Fragaria vesca and Fragaria×ananassa.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) is a key enzyme that removes reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ascorbic acid-glutathione cycle. Although APX genes have been reported in many species, comparative analysis of genome-wide, promoters, and gene functions between F. vesca (Fragaria vesca L.) and F. × ananassa (Fragaria×ananassa Duch.) have not been comprehensively explored.

Results

In this study, seven FvAPX and twenty FaAPX genes were divided into five subgroups. By comparative analysis of the 5 motifs between F. vesca and F. × ananassa, it was found that some fragments were gained/lost. These amino acid fragments might be closely related to the function of the APX genes. Synteny analysis of F. vesca and F. × ananassa showed that there were more collinearity genes with g
