Genome-Wide Identification, Expression Profile of the TIFY Gene Family in Brassica oleracea var. capitata, and Their Divergent Response to Various Pathogen Infections and Phytohormone Treatments.

ABSTRACT: TIFY, a plant-specific gene family with the conserved motif TIF[F/Y]XG, plays important roles in various plant biological processes. Here, a total of 36 TIFY genes were identified in the Brassica oleracea genome and classified into JAZ (22 genes), TIFY (7 genes), ZML (5 genes), and PPD (2 genes) subfamilies based on their conserved motifs, which were distributed unevenly across nine chromosomes with different lengths (339-1077 bp) and exon numbers (1-8). Following phylogenetic analysis with A. thaliana and B. rapa TIFY proteins, ten clades were obtained. The expression of these TIFY genes was organ-specific, with thirteen JAZ genes and two PPD genes showing the highest expression in roots and leaves, respectively. More importantly, the JAZs showed divergent responses t
