Abstract:

In order to explore the number and expression of the BoPINs gene family participating in self-incompatibilty of Brassica, their expression after self-pollination and cross-pollination were detected by transcriptome analysis, and the corresponding gene structure, phylogenetic tree and expression patterns of the family were further analyzed by bioinformatics. This gene family contained 5-9 exons and 4-8 introns. The amino acid of the encoding protein residues were between 350 and 650 and had molecular weights ranging from 38 kD to 70 kD. Except that BoPIN5 and BoPIN8 did not contain internal hydrophilic cytoplasmic regions, the remaining six BoPINs proteins contained a hydrophobic region at both ends and an internal hydrophilic ring, showing they located on membrane. The evolutionary analysis indicated that BoPINs were closely related to the BrPINs and the AtPINs gene family. Chromosome localization analysis indicated that BoPIN1-1, BoPIN3-1, BoPIN3-2, and BoPIN6 members of the family were linked to S-loucs to different degrees. Tissue-specific expression analysis indicated that BoPIN1-1, BoPIN1-2, BoPIN2, BoPIN3-1, BoPIN3-2, BoPIN4, BoPIN6, BoPIN7-1, and BoPIN7-2 had higher expression levels in the stigma. Data expression profiling and fluorescence quantitative analysis indicated that six of the eight BoPINs genes were down-regulated after self-pollination. All these results indicate that six members of the eight BoPIN gene family members on the membrane may participate in the self-incompatibility response of Brassica oleracea in a negative regulatory manner.

Key words: Brassica oleracea, auxin, self-pollination, BoPINs family, self-incompatibility
