Prediction and sequence alignment of fruit dehiscence-related genes in oilseed rape
Fruit dehiscence for seed dispersal exists broadly in flowering plants including many important crops such as oilseed rape and soybean, which can cause yield reduction and succeeding crops contamination in crop production. Previous studies on model plant Arabidopsis have identified several transcriptional regulators required for fruit dehiscence. These transcriptional factors belong to bHLH or MADS-box genes families which have a range of different roles in plant cell and tissue development as well as plant metabolism. By using bioinformatics, we have predicted the homologous genes of fruit dehiscence-related genes in oilseed rape. The results sequence alignment showed different degree of homology and their functions were discussed.
