Genome-wide identification of SWEET gene family and functional analysis of BcSWEET1-2 associated with flowering in flowering Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris)
This study systematically identified the BcSWEET gene family in flowering Chinese cabbage and characterized its physicochemical properties, evolutionary relationships, and expression patterns. Further analysis demonstrated that some BcSWEET gene members may play crucial roles in flowering regulation. These findings provide theoretical guidance for further research on the role of SWEET-induced sugar accumulation in flower development in flowering Chinese cabbage.
