Cloning and Functional Analysis of BcMYB101 Gene Involved in Leaf Development in Pak Choi (Brassica rapa ssp. Chinensis).

ABSTRACT: As one of the largest transcription factor families, MYB transcription factors are widely present, and they are involved in a diverse range of physiological activities in plants, such as leaf development. GAMYB genes belong to the R2R3-MYB subfamily, which includes the MYB33/65/101 gene, and these genes are studied well in seed germination and flowering, but their roles in leaf development are poorly understood. In the current study, we isolated a GAMYB transcription factor from pak choi, BcMYB101, and analyzed its characteristics and function. The sequence structure analysis indicated that BcMYB101 has a highly conserved R2R3 DNA-binding domain in the N-terminal region and three GAMYB-specific motifs (Box1, Box2, and Box3). The expression pattern of diverse tissues revealed that BcMYB101
