The Jumonji C (JmjC) structural domain-containing gene family plays essential roles in stress responses. However, descriptions of this family in Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis (Chinese cabbage) are still scarce. In this study, we identified 29 members of the BrJMJ gene family, with cis-acting elements related to light, low temperature, anaerobic conditions, and phytohormone responses. Most BrJMJs were highly expressed in the siliques and flowers, suggesting that histone demethylation may play a crucial role in reproductive organ development. The expression of BrJMJ1, BrJMJ2, BrJMJ5, BrJMJ13, BrJMJ21 and BrJMJ24 gradually increased with higher Cd concentration under Cd stress, while BrJMJ4 and BrJMJ29 could be induced by osmotic, salt, cold, and heat stress. These results demonstrate that BrJMJs are responsive to abiotic stress and support future analysis of their biological functions. |
