Abstract DNA-binding with one finger (Dof) transcription factors are plant-specific transcription factors involved in numerous pathways of plant development, especially in respond to abiotic stresses. Although genome-wide analysis of this gene family has been performed in many species, Dof genes in spinach have not been thoroughly analyzed. We performed a genome-wide analysis and characterization of Dof gene family in spinach. Twenty two Dof genes were identified and classified into four groups with nine subgroups, which was further corroborated by gene structure and motif analyses. Ka/Ks analysis revealed that SoDofs were subjected to purify selection. Using Cis-acting elements analysis, SoDofs were involved in plant growth and development, plant hormones and stress responses. Expression profiling demonstrated that SoDofs expressed in leaf and inflorescence, and responded to cold, heat, and drought stresses. SoDof22 expressed the highest level in male flowers and under cold stress. These results provided a genome-wide analysis of SoDof genes, their gender- and tissue-specific expression, and response to abiotic stresses. The knowledge and resources gained from these analyses will benefit spinach improvement.

Myeloblastosis (MYB)-related transcription factors comprise a large subfamily of the MYB family. They play significant roles in plant development and in stress responses. However, MYB-related proteins have not been comprehensively investigated in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). In the present study, a genome-wide analysis of MYB-related transcription factors was performed in rapeseed. We identified 251 Brassica napus MYB (BnMYB)-related members, which were divided phylogenetically into five clades. Evolutionary analysis suggested that whole genome duplication and segmental duplication events have played a significant role in the expansion of BnMYB-related gene family. Selective pressure of BnMYB-related genes was estimated using the Ka/Ks ratio, which indicated that BnMYB-related genes underwent strong purifying selection during evolution. In silico analysis showed that various development-associated, phytohormone-responsive, and stress-related cis-acting regulatory elements were enriched in the promoter regions of BnMYB-related genes. Furthermore, MYB-related genes with tissue or organ-specific, stress-responsive expression patterns were identified in B. napus based on temporospatial and abiotic stress expression profiles. Among the stress-responsive MYB-related genes, BnMRD107 was strongly induced by drought stress, and was therefore selected for functional study. Rapeseed seedlings overexpressing BnMRD107 showed improved resistance to osmotic stress. Our findings not only lay a foundation for further functional characterization of BnMYB-related genes, but also provide valuable clues to determine candidate genes for future genetic improvement of B. napus.

Transcription factors (TFs) play fundamental roles in the developmental processes of all living organisms. Squamosa Promoter Binding Protein-like (SBP/SBP-Box) is a major family of plant-specific TFs, which plays important roles in multiple processes involving plant growth and development. While some work has been done, there is a lot more that is yet to be discovered in the hexaploid wheat SBP (TaSBP) family. With the completion of whole genome sequencing, genome-wide analysis of SBPs in common hexaploid wheat is now possible. In this study, we used protein–protein Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLASTp) to hunt the newly released reference genome sequence of hexaploid wheat (Chinese spring). Seventy-four TaSBP proteins (belonging to 56 genes) were identified and clustered into five groups. Gene structure and motif analysis indicated that most TaSBPs have relatively conserved exon–intron arrangements and motif composition. Analysis of transcriptional data showed that many TaSBP genes responded to some biological and abiotic stresses with different expression patterns. Moreover, three TaSBP genes were generally expressed in the majority of tissues throughout the wheat growth and also responded to many environmental biotic and abiotic stresses. Collectively, the detailed analyses presented here will help in understanding the roles of the TaSBP and also provide a reference for the further study of its biological function in wheat.
