Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of TCP Gene Family Members in Melastoma candidum.

ABSTRACT: It has been confirmed that the plant-specific Teosinte-branched 1/Cycloidea/Proliferating (TCP) gene family plays a pivotal role during plant growth and development. M. candidum is a native ornamental species and has a wide range of pharmacodynamic effects. However, there is still a lack of research on TCP’s role in controlling M. candidum’s development, abiotic stress responses and hormone metabolism. A comprehensive description of the TCP gene family in M. candidum is urgently needed. In this study, we used the HMMER search method in conjunction with the BLASTp method to identify the members of the TCP gene family, and a total of 35 TCP genes were identified. A domain analysis further confirmed that all 35 TCPs contained a TCP superfamily, a characteristic involved in dimerization and DN
