Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of the NAC Transcription Factor Gene Family in Garden Asparagus (Asparagus officinalis).

ABSTRACT: As a large plant-specific gene family, the NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC2) transcription factor is related to plant growth, development, and response to abiotic stresses. Although the draft genome of garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis) has been released, the genome-wide investigation of the NAC gene family is still unavailable. In this study, a total of 85 A. officinalis NAC genes were identified, and a comprehensive analysis of the gene family was performed, including physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationship, chromosome localization, gene structure, conserved motifs, intron/exon, cis-acting elements, gene duplication, syntenic analysis, and differential gene expression analysis. The phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that there were 14 subgroups in both A.
