Systematic analysis of the OFP genes in six Rosaceae genomes and their roles in stress response in Chinese pear (Pyrus bretschneideri).

ABSTRACT: OVATE family proteins (OFPs) are the plant-specific transcription factors, and have significant functions in regulating plant growth, development and resistance. The OFP genes have been investigated in several plants, but they still lack a systematic analysis of OFP genes in Chinese pear and some other five Rosaceae genomes. Here, 28 PbrOFPs were identified within Chinese pear and compared them with those of other five Rosaceae genomes. Evolutionary tree revealed that all OFP genes from six Rosaceae genomes were divided into eight groups. Seventeen conserved microsynteny regions were detected in Chinese pear genome, suggested that these PbrOFP genes might be considered to have originated from the large-scale duplication events., indicating these PbrOFP
