Abstract:

Objective To identify the bZIP gene family of Dendrobium officinale,and clarify the biological function of DobZIP transcription factors through bioinformatics and gene expression analysis, thus aiming to provide theoretical guidance for further exploration of the molecular mechanism of DobZIP transcription factors. Method Based on the genome data of Dendrobium officinale in the IMP database, we identified the members of DobZIP gene family, and performed multiple of bioinformatics analysis. Furthermore, we used transcriptome data and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR technology to analyze the tissue expression pattern and abiotic stress expression of DobZIP transcription factors. Result A total of 54 DobZIP genes were identified. None of the DobZIP proteins had signal peptides, and only DobZIP54 had a transmembrane domain. The subcellular localization of the DobZIP proteins were mainly in the nucleus. Members of the DobZIP family were classified into 10 subfamilies, and members of the same subfamily contained similar structures and motifs. DobZIP genes were unevenly distributed on 18 chromosomes, with two pairs of genes showing tandem relationships. There were multiple collinear relationships between species, and DobZIP family had a high homology with the OsbZIP family in rice. Cis-acting elements analysis indicated that the DobZIP family members all contained multiple cis-acting elements involved in growth and development and response to abiotic stress. Gene expression pattern analysis showed that the DobZIP family members had tissue-specific expression, and DobZIP4DobZIP10DobZIP28DobZIP32 and DobZIP37 were induced by cold, drought and NaCl stress to varying degrees. In addition to DobZIP32 and DobZIP37, DobZIP4, DobZIP10 and DobZIP28 were also induced by high temperature stress. Conclusion A total of 54 DobZIP genes are identified in the genome of Dendrobium officinale. DobZIP genes was in tissue-specific expression, and DobZIP4, DobZIP10, DobZIP28, DobZIP32 and DobZIP37 are induced to varying degrees under cold, drought, and NaCl stress.
