Identification and expression analysis of the MADS-box genes of Kentucky bluegrass during inflorescence development.

ABSTRACT: MADS-box genes play vital roles in multiple biological processes of plants growth and development, especially inflorescence development. In the present study, a comprehensive investigation into the identification and classification of MADS-box genes in Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis) has not been reported. Here, based on the transcriptome of inflorescence, we identified 44 PpMADS-box genes, and gave an overview of the physicochemical properties, phylogeny, protein structures, and potential functions of the proteins encoded by these genes through various bioinformatics software for the first time. Analysis of physicochemical properties revealed that most PpMADS-box were alkaline proteins and possessed similar conserved motifs. Additionally, it was demonstrated that 33 PpMADS-box p
