    Abstract:
    In Rosaceae, tandem duplication caused the drastic expansion of CNGC gene family Group I. The members MdCN11 and MdCN19 negatively regulate Valsa canker resistance. Apple (Malus domestica) and pear (Pyrus bretschneideri and P. communis) are important fruit crops in Rosaceae family but are suffering from threats of Valsa canker. Cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels (CNGCs) take crucial roles in plant immune responses. In the present study, a total of 355 CNGCs was identified from 8 Rosaceae plants. Based on phylogenetic analysis, 540 CNGCs from 18 plants (8 in Rosaceae and 10 others) could be divided into four groups. Group I was greatly expanded in Rosaceae resulted from tandem duplications. A large number of cis-acting regulatory elements (cis-elements) responsive to signals from multiple stresses and hormones were identified in the promoter regions of CNGCs in Malus spp. and Pyrus spp. Expressions of most Group I members were obviously up-regulated in Valsa canker susceptible varieties but not in the resistant ones. Furthermore, overexpression of the MdCN11 and MdCN19 in both apple fruits and 'Duli' (P. betulifolia) suspension cells compromised Valsa canker resistance. Overexpression of MdCN11 induced expression of hypersensitive response (HR)-related genes. In conclusion, tandem duplication resulted in a drastic expansion of CNGC Group I members in Rosaceae. Among these, MdCN11 and MdCN19 negatively regulate the Valsa canker resistance via inducting HR.
