Siberian wildrye ( L.), a model Gramineae plant, has high eco-economic value but limited seed and forage yield. transcription factors are widely regarded as influencing yield and quality and being crucial for growth and development; still, this gene family in Siberian wildrye remains unexplored. Therefore, this study looked at the Siberian wildrye gene family's reaction to several abiotic stresses, its expression pattern, and its potential evolutionary path. Fifty-four members of the gene family were discovered. There are two major subfamilies based on the phylogenetic tree: 27 of Class I () and 27 of Class II (12 -type and 15 -type). Gene structure, conserved motif, and sequence alignment analyses further validated this classification. -elements found in the promoter region of are associated with lots of plant hormones and stress-related reactions, covering drought induction and cold tolerance. , , and may regulate tillering and lateral branch development. 's relative expression was significant under five stresses. Additionally, eight genes are potential miR319 targets. These findings highlight the critical significance of the gene family in Siberian wildrye, laying the groundwork for understanding the function of the EsTCP protein in abiotic stress studies and high-yield breeding.
披碱草(Elymus sibiricus L.)是一种模式禾本科植物,具有较高的生态经济价值,但种子和饲草产量有限。转录因子被广泛认为会影响产量和品质,对生长发育至关重要;然而,披碱草中的这个基因家族仍未被研究。因此,本研究考察了披碱草TCP基因家族对几种非生物胁迫的反应、其表达模式及其潜在的进化路径。发现了该基因家族的54个成员。基于系统发育树有两个主要亚家族:I类(CIN)的27个和II类(CYC/TB1型和PCF型)的27个。基因结构、保守基序和序列比对分析进一步验证了这种分类。在TCP启动子区域发现的顺式作用元件与许多植物激素和胁迫相关反应有关,包括干旱诱导和耐寒性。EsTCP1、EsTCP2和EsTCP3可能调控分蘖和侧枝发育。EsTCP在五种胁迫下的相对表达显著。此外,八个EsTCP基因是潜在的miR319靶标。这些发现突出了TCP基因家族在披碱草中的关键意义,为理解EsTCP蛋白在非生物胁迫研究和高产育种中的功能奠定了基础。
