摘要: As transcription factors derived from transposase, FAR-RED IMPAIRED RESPONSE1 (FAR1) and its homolog FHY3 play crucial roles in the regulation of light signaling and various stress responses by coordinating the expression of downstream target genes. Despite the extensive investigation of the FAR1/FHY3 family in Arabidopsis thaliana and other species, a comprehensive examination of these genes in maize has not been conducted thus far. In this study, we employed a genomic mining approach to identify 16 ZmFAR1 genes in the maize inbred line B73, which were further classified into five subgroups based on their phylogenetic relationships. The present study characterized the predicted polypeptide sequences, molecular weights, isoelectric points, chromosomal distribution, gene structure, conserved motifs, subcellular localizations, phylogenetic relationships, and cis-regulatory elements of all members belonging to the ZmFAR1 family. Furthermore, the tissue-specific expression of the 16 ZmFAR1 genes was analyzed using RNA-seq, and their expression patterns under far-red light conditions were validated in the ear and tassel through qRT-qPCR. The observed highly temporal and spatial expression patterns of these ZmFAR1 genes were likely associated with their specific functional capabilities under different light conditions. Further analysis revealed that six ZmFAR1 genes (ZmFAR1-1, ZmFAR1-10, ZmFAR1-11, ZmFAR1-12, ZmFAR1-14, and ZmFAR1-15) exhibited a response to simulated shading treatment and actively contributed to the development of maize ears. Through the integration of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses and population genetics, we identified the presence of potential causal variations in ZmFAR1-14 and ZmFAR1-9, which play a crucial role in regulating the kernel row number and kernel volume weight, respectively. In summary, this study represents the initial identification and characterization of ZmFAR1 family members in maize, uncovering the functional variation in candidate regulatory genes associated with the improvement of significant agronomic traits during modern maize breeding.
