Comparative Genomics of Spatholobus suberectus and Insight Into Flavonoid Biosynthesis.

ABSTRACT: Spatholobus suberectus Dunn (S. suberectus), has been widely used in traditional medicines plant source of the Leguminosae family. Its vine stem of which plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of various diseases because it contains various flavonoids. Comparative genome analysis suggested well-conserved genomic components and genetic collinearity between the genome of S. suberectus and other genera of Leguminosae such as Glycine max. We discovered two whole genome duplications (WGD) events in S. suberectus and G. max lineage underwent a WGD after speciation from S. suberectus. The determination of expansion and contractions of orthologous gene families revealed 1,001 expanded gene families and 3,649 contracted gene families
