摘要: TBL (Trichome Birefringence Like) gene family members are involved in trichome initiation and xylan acetylation in several plant species. In our research, we identified 102 TBLs from G. hirsutum. The phylogenetic tree classified TBL genes into five groups. Collinearity analysis of TBL genes indicated 136 paralogous gene pairs in G. hirsutum. Gene duplication indicated that WGD or segmental duplication contributed to the GhTBL gene family expansion. Promoter cis-elements of GhTBLs were related to growth and development, seed-specific regulation, light, and stress responses. GhTBL genes (GhTBL7, GhTBL15, GhTBL21, GhTBL25, GhTBL45, GhTBL54, GhTBL67, GhTBL72, and GhTBL77) exhibited upregulated response under exposure to cold, heat, NaCl, and PEG. GhTBL genes exhibited high expression during fiber development stages. Two GhTBL genes (GhTBL7 and GhTBL58) showed differential expression at 10 DPA fiber, as 10 DPA is a fast fiber elongation stage and fiber elongation is a very important stage of cotton fiber development. Subcellular localization of GhTBL7 and GhTBL58 revealed that these genes reside inside the cell membrane. Promoter GUS activity of GhTBL7 and GhTBL58 exhibited deep staining in roots. To further validate the role of these genes in cotton fiber elongation, we silenced these genes and observed a significant reduction in the fiber length at 10 DPA. In conclusion, the functional study of cell membrane-associated genes (GhTBL7 and GhTBL58) showed deep staining in root tissues and potential function during cotton fiber elongation at 10 DPA fiber.
