Genome – wide Analysis and Characterization of Eucalyptus grandis TCP Transcription Factors

TCPs, a small transcription gene family, serve in developmental processes such as branching, flowering, and growth of plants. In this study, the TCP family eucalyptus, which is considered being important for its medicinal industrial uses was bioinformatically investigated. A total 16 Eucalyptus grandis (Egra-TCP) genes were found to be distributed on chromosomes 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10 11. Several segmentally-duplicated couples including Egra-TCP-7/Egra-TCP-11, -13 -16, Egra-TCP-6/Egra-TCP-12 -15, Egra-TCP-12/Egra-TCP-15 Egra-TCP-11/Egra-TCP-13 discovered. Egra-TCPs divided into three main clades based phylogenetic analysis, motif structure. While Egra-TCP-10 has highest molecular weight with 47.19 kDa, lowest one Egra-TCP-1 21.68 kDa. Twelve Egra-TCP have no introns. On other hand, Egra-TCP-7, -15 -16 single intron. The orthologous relationships among E. grandis/Arabidopsis thaliana grandis/Vitis vinifera through synteny analysis. Digital expression profiles tissues xylem, phloem, shoot tips, young & mature leaf revealed high pattern. findings study could make significant contributions biotechnology field by providing new knowledge additional information understanding basis eucalyptus plant.
