Abstract:

【Objective】 Identification of the OFP (OVATE family protein) genes from apple genome and analysis of gene characteristic, tissue expression pattern and response to abiotic stresses of OFP family genes in apple will be useful to the functional analysis of plant OFP genes. 【Method】 Based on apple genome database, the OFP gene family members were identified and the genes were analyzed using bioinformatics methods. A phylogenetic tree was created using the MEGA5.0 program. Gene structure and chromosomes location were carried out by MapDraw and GSDS separately. Expression pattern analysis of OFP genes in different tissues was done based on the existing microarray database and qRT-PCR. The expression of 13 MdOFPs genes was also analyzed under various stress conditions using qRT-PCR. 【Result】 A total of 28 OFP genes was systematically identified from apple genome and classified into 4 groups including 13, 6, 4 and 5 members according to the gene structure and conserved domain phylogeny relationship. All OFP genes are distributed on 13 apple chromosomes with the largest number six MdOFP on Chr12, suggesting that they have an extensive distribution on the apple chromosomes. Most of the OFP genes have distinctive expression patterns in tissues and response to NaCl and PEG treatment stresses in root and shoot, respectively. MdOFP04 and MdOFP20 were up-regulated obviously in root and shoot, while MdOFP01, MdOFP12 and MdOFP18 have opposite expression pattern in root and shoot under NaCl stress. Temperature stresses significantly regulate the expression of MdOFP and the expression of MdOFP04 and MdOFP17 were significantly increased after high temperature and low temperature stresses. 【Conclusion】 Twenty-eight OFP genes in apple were identified by genome-wide screening. They are classified into four groups and distributed on 13 chromosomes with different tissue patterns and different stress response patterns. These results will be helpful to the functional analysis of OFP genes in apple.
