摘要： Phytosulfokine (PSK) is a tyrosine-sulfated pentapeptide found throughout the plant kingdom, playing key roles in plant growth, development, and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, there is still a lack of a comprehensive analysis of the CsPSK gene family in Camellia sinensis. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide identification and characterized 14 CsPSK genes in tea plants, which are unevenly distributed across seven chromosomes. CsPSK genes encode proteins ranging from 75 to 124 amino acids in length, all belonging to the PSK-alpha type and containing conserved PSK domains. A synteny analysis revealed that the expansion of the CsPSK gene family is primarily attributed to whole-genome duplication, with homology to Arabidopsis thaliana PSK genes. A promoter region analysis identified cis-regulatory elements related to hormone and stress responses. An expression profile analysis showed that CsPSK genes are highly expressed in roots, stems, flowers, and leaves, and are induced by both biotic and abiotic stresses. Furthermore, an RT-qPCR assay demonstrated that the expression levels of CsPSK8, CsPSK9, and CsPSK10 are significantly upregulated following Discula theae-sinensis infection. These findings establish a basis for further research into the role of the CsPSK gene family in tea plant disease resistance and underlying molecular mechanisms, offering valuable perspectives for developing novel antimicrobial peptides.
