Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of Lbd Transcription Factor Genes in Jatropha curcas and Related Species.

ABSTRACT: Lateral organ boundaries domain (LBD) proteins are plant-specific transcription factors that play important roles in organ development and stress response. However, the function of LBD genes has not been reported in Euphorbiaceae. In this paper, we used Jatropha curcas as the main study object and added rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) and castor (Ricinus communis L.) to take a phylogenetic analysis of LBD genes. Of LBD, 33, 58, 54 and 30 members were identified in J. curcas, rubber tree, cassava and castor, respectively. The phylogenetic analysis showed that LBD members of Euphorbiaceae could be classified into two major classes and seven subclasses (Ia-Ie,IIa-IIb), and LBD genes of Euphorbi
