Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of FBA Gene Family in Polyploid Crop Brassica napus.

ABSTRACT: Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) is a versatile metabolic enzyme involved in multiple important processes of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and Calvin cycle. Despite its significance in plant biology, the identity of this gene family in oil crops is lacking. Here, we performed genome-wide identification and characterization of FBAs in an allotetraploid species, oilseed rape Brassica napus. Twenty-two BnaFBA genes were identified and divided into two groups based on integrative analyses of functional domains, phylogenetic relationships, and gene structures. Twelve and ten B. napus FBAs (BnaFBAs) were predicted to be localized in the chloroplast and cytoplasm, respectively. Notably, synteny analysis revealed that Brassica-specific triplication contrib
