Popis: The Multidrug and Toxic Compound Extrusion (MATE) proteins serve as pivotal transporters responsible for the extrusion of metabolites, thereby playing a significant role in both plant development and the detoxification of toxins. The MATE gene family within the Brachypodium distachyon, which is an important model organism of the Poaceae family, remains largely unexplored. Here, a comprehensive identification and analysis of MATE genes that complement B. distachyon were conducted. The BdMATE genes were systematically categorized into five distinct groups, predicated on an assessment of their phylogenetic affinities and protein structure. Furthermore, our investigation revealed that dispersed duplication has significantly contributed to the expansion of the BdMATE genes, with tandem and segmental duplications showing important roles, suggesting that the MATE genes in Poaceae species have embarked on divergent evolutionary trajectories. Examination of ω values demonstrated that BdMATE genes underwent purifying selection throughout the evolutionary process. Furthermore, collinearity analysis has confirmed a high conservation of MATE genes between B. distachyon and rice. The cis-regulatory elements analysis within BdMATEs promoters, coupled with expression patterns, suggests that BdMATEs play important roles during plant development and in response to phytohormones. Collectively, the findings presented establish a foundational basis for the subsequent detailed characterization of the MATE gene family members in B. distachyon.
