Popis: The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter gene family plays a vital role in substance transportation, including secondary metabolites, and phytohormones across membranous structures. It is still uncovered in potato (Solanum tuberosum), grown worldwide as a 3rd important food crop. The current study identified a total of 54 Stabc genes in potato genome. The accumulative phylogenetic tree of Stabc with arabidopsis, divided into eight groups (ABCA to ABCH). ABCG was the most prominent group covering 90% of Stabc genes, followed by ABCB group. The number and architecture of exon–intron varied from gene to gene. In addition, the presence of stress-responsive elements in the regulatory regions depicted their role in environmental stress. Furthermore, the tissue-specific and stress-specific expression profiling of Stabc genes and their validation through real-time-qPCR analysis revealed their role in development and stress. The presented results provided useful information for further functional analysis of Stabc genes and can also use as a reference study for other important crops.
