Genome-wide identification and comparative analysis of CLE family in rapeseed and its diploid progenitors.

ABSTRACT: Crop genomics and breeding CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-RELATED (CLE) proteins belong to a small peptide family in plants. During plant development, CLE gene family members play a pivotal role in regulating cell-to-cell communication and stem cell maintenance. However, the evolutionary process and functional importance of CLEs are unclear in Brassicaceae. In this study, a total of 70 BnCLEs were identified in Brassica napus (2n = 4x = 38, A_nC_n): 32 from the A_n subgenome, 36 from the C_n subgenome, and 2 from the unanchored subgenome. Meanwhile, 29 BrCLE and 32 BoCLE genes were explored in Brassica rapa (2n = 2x = 20, A_r) and Brassica oleracea (2n = 2x = 18, C_o). Ph
