Auxin Response Factors (ARF) are transcription factors that play a crucial role in auxin signaling and regulate various biological processes. This study focused on the systematic analysis of the ARF gene family in pigeonpea and identified key proteins controlling embryo and seed development. The analysis revealed the presence of 12 ARF genes in pigeonpea distributed across different chromosomes. These ARF proteins contain specific domains related to DNA binding, auxin response, and hormone signaling. The study also showed the expression patterns of different ARF genes in various tissues and their potential role in regulating embryo development and seed set in pigeonpea.
Auxin Response Factors (ARF) are a family of transcription factors that mediate auxin signalling and regulate multiple biological processes. Their crucial role in increasing plant biomass/yield influenced this study, where a systematic analysis of ARF gene family was carried out to identify the key proteins controlling embryo/seed developmental pathways in pigeonpea. A genome-wide scan revealed the presence of 12 ARF genes in pigeonpea, distributed across the chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 8 and 11. Domain analysis of ARF proteins showed the presence of B3 DNA binding, AUX response, and IAA domains. Majority of them are of nuclear origin, and do not exhibit the level of genomic expansion as observed in Glycine max (51 members). The duplication events seem to range from 31.6 to 42.3 million years ago (mya). Promoter analysis revealed the presence of multiple cis-acting elements related to stress responses, hormone signalling and other development processes. The expression atlas data highlighted the expression of CcARF8 in hypocotyl, bud and flower whereas, CcARF7 expression was significantly high in pod. The real-time expression of CcARF2, CcARF3 and CcARF18 was highest in genotypes with high seed number indicating their key role in regulating embryo development and determining seed set in pigeonpea.
