Genome-wide identification, evolutionary analysis of 4CL gene family and expression analysis in banana by Mengge Wang, Liang Jia, Yanying Liu, Chunyu Zhang, Yukun Chen, Yuling Lin, Yuji Huang, Zhongxiong Lai

“…Musa acuminata genomics has 22 and 19 pairs of co-linear members with Musa balbisiana and Musa itinerans genomics, respectively.The above results provide a good foundation for further research on the function of the 4CL genes and resistance breeding.Highlights Twenty 4CL gene family members were found in banana (Musa acuminata) genomes.Banana 4CLs were expressed in response to low temperature stress.The members of the banana 4CL gene family were found to be relatively structurally diverse, and it was further hypothesised that 4CL may be involved in plant lignin synthesis and closely related to the process of plant differentiation into monocotyledons and dicotyledons, based on the hypothesis of Huang et al.…”
