Genome-Wide Identification, Characterization and Expression Analysis of TCP Transcription Factors in Petunia.

ABSTRACT: The plant-specific TCP transcription factors are well-characterized in both monocots and dicots, which have been implicated in multiple aspects of plant biological processes such as leaf morphogenesis and senescence, lateral branching, flower development and hormone crosstalk. However, no systematic analysis of the petunia TCP gene family has been described. In this work, a total of 66 petunia TCP genes (32 PaTCP genes in P. axillaris and 34 PiTCP genes in P. inflata) were identified. Subsequently, a systematic analysis of 32 PaTCP genes was performed. The phylogenetic analysis combined with structural analysis clearly distinguished the 32 PaTCP proteins into two classes-class ? and class ?. Class ? was further divided into two subclades, namely, the CIN-TCP subclade and the CYC/TB1 subclade. Plenty of cis-acting elements responsible for plant growth and development, phytohormone and/or stress responses were identified in the promoter of PaTCPs. Distinct spatial expression patterns were determined among PaTCP genes, suggesting that these genes may have diverse regulatory roles in plant growth development. Furthermore, differential temporal expression patterns were observed between the large- and small-flowered petunia lines for most PaTCP genes, suggesting that these genes are likely to be related to petal development and/or petal size in petunia. The spatiotemporal expression profiles and promoter analysis of PaTCPs indicated that these genes play important roles in petunia diverse developmental processes that may work via multiple hormone pathways. Moreover, three PaTCP-YFP fusion proteins were detected in nuclei through subcellular localization analysis. This is the first comprehensive analysis of the petunia TCP gene family on a genome-wide scale, which provides the basis for further functional characterization of this gene family in petunia.

Project description:BackgroundCitrus is one of the most important fruit crops in the world, and it is worthy to conduct more research on artificially controlling citrus plant growth and development to adapt to different cultivation patterns and environmental conditions. The plant-specific TEOSINTE BRANCHED1, CYCOLOIDEA, and PROLIFERATING CELL FACTORS (TCP) transcription factors are crucial regulators controlling plant growth and development, as well as responding to abiotic stresses. However, the information about citrus TCP transcription factors remains unclear.ResultsIn this study, twenty putative TCP genes (CsTCPs) with the TCP domain were explored from Citrus sinensis genome, of which eleven (CsTCP3, - 4, - 5, - 6, - 10, - 11, - 15, - 16, - 18, - 19, - 20), five (CsTCP1, - 2, - 7, - 9, - 13), and four genes (CsTCP8, - 12, - 14, - 17) were unevenly distributed on chromosomes and divided into three subclades. Cis-acting element analysis indicated that most CsTCPs contained many phytohormone- and environment-responsive elements in promoter regions. All of CsTCPs were predominantly expressed in vegetative tissues or organs (stem, leaf, thorn, and bud) instead of reproductive tissues or organs (flower, fruit, and seed). Combined with collinearity analysis, CsTCP3, CsTCP9, and CsTCP13 may take part in leaf development; CsTCP12 and CsTCP14 may function in shoot branching, leaf development, or thorn development; CsTCP15 may participate in the development of stem, leaf, or thorn. In mature leaf, transcript levels of two CsTCPs (CsTCP19, - 20) were significantly increased while transcript levels of eight CsTCPs (CsTCP2, - 5, - 6, - 7, - 8, - 9, - 10, - 13) were significantly decreased by shading; except for two CsTCPs (CsTCP11, - 19), CsTCPs' transcript levels were significantly influenced by low temperature; moreover, transcript levels of two CsTCPs (CsTCP11, - 12) were significantly increased while five CsTCPs' (CsTCP14, - 16, - 18, - 19, - 20) transcript levels were significantly reduced by drought.ConclusionsThis study provides significant clues for research on roles of CsTCPs in regulating citrus plant growth and development, as well as responding to abiotic stresses.
