摘要： In this study, a total of 66 UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGP) (EC 2.7.7.9) genes were identified from the genomes of four cotton species, which are the members of Pfam glycosyltransferase family (PF01702) and catalyze the reaction between glucose1-phosphate and UTP to produce UDPG. The analysis of evolutionary relationship, gene structure, and expression provides the basis for studies on function of UGP genes in cotton. The evolutionary tree and gene structure analysis revealed that the UGP gene family is evolutionarily conserved. Collinearity and Ka/Ks analysis indicated that amplification of UGP genes is due to repetitive crosstalk generating between new family genes, while being under strong selection pressure. The analysis of cis-acting elements exhibited that UGP genes play important role in cotton growth, development, abiotic and hormonal stresses. Six UGP genes that were highly expressed in cotton fiber at 15 DPA were screened by transcriptome data and qRT-PCR analysis. The addition of low concentrations of IAA and GA3 to ovule cultures revealed that energy efficiency promoted the development of ovules and fiber clusters, and qRT-PCR showed that expression of these six UGP genes was differentially increased. These results suggest that the UGP gene may play an important role in fiber development, and provides the opportunity to plant researchers to explore the mechanisms involve in fiber development in cotton.
