“…PP2C-type phosphatases form a major class of phosphatases in plants and play a crucial role as regulators of signal transduction pathways and are involved in development [39]. To date, PP2C genes have been identified in various plant species, such as Arabidopsis thaliana [40], Oryza sativa [26,40], Brachypodium distachyon [21], Populus euphratica [41], Glycine max and Sorghum bicolor [42], Brassica rapa [43], Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch [44], Brassica juncea var. tumida [45], and Zea mays [36,37].…”

The protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) constitutes a large gene family that plays crucial roles in regulating stress responses and plant development. A recent study has shown the involvement of an AtPP2C family member in long-distance nitrogen signaling in Arabidopsis. However, it remains unclear whether maize adopts a similar mechanism. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide survey and expression analysis of the PP2C family in maize. We identified 103 ZmPP2C genes distributed across 10 chromosomes, which were further classified into 11 subgroups based on an evolutionary tree. Notably, cis-acting element analysis revealed the presence of abundant hormone and stress-related, as well as nitrogen-related, cis-elements in the promoter regions of ZmPP2Cs. Expression analysis demonstrated the distinct expression patterns of nine genes under two nitrogen treatments. Notably, the expression of ZmPP2C54 and ZmPP2C85 in the roots was found to be regulated by long-distance signals from the shoots. These findings provide valuable insights into understanding the roles of ZmPP2Cs in long-distance nitrogen signaling in maize.

“…Major group of protein phosphatases are monomer enzymes and represented by Type 2 C protein phosphatases (PP2Cs) in plants. They need divalent ion (Mg 2+ or Mn 2+ ) for activity and act on serine/ threonine residues, hence catagorized under protein serine/threonine phosphatases (Bhalothia et al, 2018). PP2Cs are found to be evolutionarily conserved from prokaryotes to eukaryotes (Sugimoto et al, 2014), found in archaea, bacteria, fungi, plants and animals .…”

“…The PP2C-1 can be related to seed weight and size [26], and GmPP2C1 can interact with GmPYL1 in an ABA-dependent manner [27]. GmPP2Cs have already been previously found by searching the NCBI protein database [28], but a comprehensive expansion, molecular evolution and functional analysis of the PP2C family are still lacking in soybean. In this study, a comparative genomic analysis of the PP2C family revealed the species-specific molecular evolution and expansion in soybean.…”

Background: Soybean (Glycine max) is an important oil provider and ecosystem participant. The protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) plays important roles in key biological processes. Molecular evolution and functional analysis of the PP2C family in soybean are yet to be reported. Results: The present study identified 134 GmPP2Cs with 10 subfamilies in soybean. Duplication events were prominent in the GmPP2C family, and all duplicated gene pairs were involved in the segmental duplication events. The legume-common duplication event and soybean-specific tetraploid have primarily led to expanding GmPP2C members in soybean. Sub-functionalization was the main evolutionary fate of duplicated GmPP2C members. Meanwhile, massive genes were lost in the GmPP2C family, especially from the F subfamily. Compared with other genes, the evolutionary rates were slower in the GmPP2C family. The PP2C members from the H subfamily resembled their ancestral genes. In addition, some GmPP2Cs were identified as the putative key regulator that could control plant growth and development. Conclusions: A total of 134 GmPP2Cs were identified in soybean, and their expansion, molecular evolution and putative functions were comprehensively analyzed. Our findings provided the detailed information on the evolutionary history of the GmPP2C family, and the candidate genes can be used in soybean breeding.
