Abstract

New TOMATO MADS 5 (TM5) homologous genes were identified in evolutionarily recent, red-fruited and more ancient, wild green-fruited tomato species. It was shown that the identified TM5 homologs belong to the SEPALLATA3 clade; thus, the SEP subfamily diversification was characterized. For the first time, the TM5 and RIN co-expression pattern was determined in flowers, immature green fruits, and ripe fruits of Solanum lycopersicum and in five wild tomato species. It was shown that, regardless of the species, the level of TM5 transcription in flowers was higher than that of RIN, whereas in fruits it was lower than the level of RIN transcription. The data obtained suggest that TM5, together with other transcription factors RIN and SlCMB1, is involved in the regulation of fruit development and ripening.

番茄物种中SEPALLATA基因TM5和RIN的结构和功能多样性（番茄部分）。

摘要

新的番茄MADS 5（TM5）同源基因在最近进化的，红色果实和更古老的野生绿色果实番茄物种中得到鉴定。结果表明，鉴定出的TM5同系物属于SEPALLATA3进化枝。因此，表征了SEP亚家族的多元化。对于第一次，TM5和RIN共表达模式在花，未成熟的绿色果实和的成熟果实测定番茄，并在5个野生型番茄物种。结果表明，无论物种如何，花中TM5的转录水平均高于RIN。，而在水果中则低于RIN转录水平。获得的数据表明，TM5与其他转录因子RIN和S1CMB1一起参与了果实发育和成熟的调控。
