摘要: MYB transcription factors are crucial in regulating stress tolerance and expression of major genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis. The functions of MYBs is well explored in a number of plants, yet no study is reported in Apocynum venetum. We identified a total of 163 MYB candidates, that comprised of 101 (61.96%) R2R3, 6 3R, 1 4R and 55 1R. Syntenic analysis of A. venetum R2R3 (AvMYBs) showed highest orthologous pairs with Vitis vinifera MYBs followed by Arabidopsis thaliana among the four species evaluated. Thirty segmental duplications and 6 tandem duplications were obtained among AvMYB gene pairs signifying their role in the MYB gene family expansion. Nucleotide substitution analysis (Ka/Ks) showed the AvMYBs to be under the influence of strong purifying selection. Expression analysis of selected AvMYBs under low temperature and cadmium stresses resulted in the identification of AvMYB48, AvMYB97, AvMYB8, AvMYB4 as potential stress responsive genes and AvMYB10 and AvMYB11 in addition, proanthocyanidin biosynthesis regulatory genes which is consistent with their annotated homologues in Arabidopsis. Tissue specific expression profile analysis of the AvMYBs further supported the qPCR analysis result. MYBs with higher transcript levels in root, stem and leaf like AvMYB4 for example, was downregulated under the stresses and such with low transcript level such as AvMYB48 which had low transcript in the leaf was upregulated under both stresses. Transcriptome and phylogenetic analyses suggested AvMYB42 as a potential regulator of anthocyanin biosynthesis. Thus, this study provided valuable information on AvR2R3-MYB gene family with respect to stress tolerance and flavonoid biosynthesis.
