Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) gene family in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.).

ABSTRACT: Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) is significant in the growth, development and stress resistance of plants. We identified the cucumber TPS family and its physicochemical properties, domains, gene structures, evolutionary relationships, gene locations, cis-acting elements, conserved motifs, and expression patterns using bioinformatics. Our results uncovered seven CsTPS genes in the cucumber genome and named CsTPS1-CsTPS7 according to their locations in the chromosomes. Seven CsTPS genes were randomly distributed in six cucumber chromosomes. Domain analysis showed that the TPS and TPP domains exist in all CsTPSs, and an additional hydrolase-3 domain exist in CsTPS3, CsTPS5 and CsTPS6. Phylogenetic analysis showed that TPS proteins from Arabidopsis
