Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of Terpene Synthase Genes in Cymbidium faberi.

ABSTRACT: Terpene synthases (TPSs) are essential for forming terpenes, which play numerous functional roles in attracting pollinators, defending plants, and moderating the interaction between plants. TPSs have been reported in some orchids, but genome-wide identification of terpenes in Cymbidium faberi is still lacking. In this study, 32 putative TPS genes were classified in C. faberi and divided into three subfamilies (TPS-a, TPS-b, and TPS-e/f). Motif and gene structure analysis revealed that most CfTPS genes had the conserved aspartate-rich DDxxD motif. TPS genes in the TPS-a and TPS-b subfamilies had variations in the RRX₈W motif. Most cis-elements of CfTPS genes were found in the phytohormone responsiveness category, and MYC contained most of the nu
