摘要： Background Light is essential for kiwifruit development, in which photoresponse factors contributes greatly to the quality formation. 'Light sensitive hypocotyls, also known as light-dependent short hypocotyls' (LSH) gene family can participate in fruit development as photoresponse factor. However, the key LSH gene that determine kiwifruit development remains unclear. This study aim to screen and identify the key gene AaLSH9 in A. arguta.Materials and methods Genome-wide identification of the LSH gene family was used to analyse LSH genes in kiwifruit. Homologous cloning was used to confirm the sequence of candidate LSH genes. qRT-PCR and cluster analysis of expression pattern were used to screen the key AaLSH9 gene. Subcellular localization of AaLSH9 in tobacco leaves and overexpression of AaLSH9 in Arabidopsis thaliana hy5 mutant plants were used to define the acting place in cell and identify molecular function, respectively.Results We identified 15 LSH genes, which were divided into two sub-families namely A and B. Domain analysis of A and B showed that they contained different domain organizations, which possibly played key roles in the evolution process. Three LSH genes, AaLSH2, AaLSH9, and AaLSH11, were successfully isolated from Actinidia arguta. The expression pattern and cluster analysis of these three AaLSH genes suggested AaLSH9 might be a key photoresponse gene participating in fruit development in A. arguta. Subcellular localization showed AaLSH9 protein was located in the nucleus. The overexpression of AaLSH9 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana hy5 mutant plants partially complemented the long hypocotyls of hy5 mutant, implying AaLSH9 played a key role as photoresponse factor in cells. In addition, the seed coat color of A. thaliana over-expressing AaLSH9 became lighter than the wide type A.thaliana. Finally, AaCOP1 was confirmed as photoresponse factor to participate in developmental process by stable transgenic A. thaliana.Conclusions AaLSH9 can be involved in kiwifruit (A. arguta) development as key photoresponse factor. Our results not only identified the photoresponse factors AaLSH9 and AaCOP1 but also provided insights into their key role in fruit quality improvement in the process of light response.
