Abstract: Transcriptome analysis was conducted on cucumber short fruit mutants by EMS in the previous experiment,a differentially expressed gene up-regulated in short-fruit mutants was obtained, CsIAA29 (Csa2G381840),log2FC=2.09. This gene belonged to Aux/IAA family and is involved in auxin response in early plant growth and development. In order to study the role of CsIAA29 gene in the growth and development of cucumber,the CDS sequence of CsIAA29 gene was cloned from cucumber 649 by PCR. Expasy and other online software were used for the physicochemical analysis of CsIAA29 protein. The results showed that CsIAA29 protein encoded 207 amino acids,the molecular formula was C1062H1634N302O313S7,the fat coefficient was 71.16,and the total average hydrophilicity was-0.831. Protein structure prediction found four CsIAA29 structure domains,conform to the domain of Aux/IAA family structure characteristics,a preliminary estimate the function of the four structural domain and Aux/IAA family Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ was consistent. Evolutionary analysis showed that CsIAA29 of cucumber was closely related to IAA29 of pumpkin and melon. The results of qRT-PCR showed that the expression of CsIAA29 gene was the highest in cucumber ovary,while the expression of CsIAA29 gene in male flowers and leaves was relatively low. The CsIAA29 gene promoter component was analyzed using the online software PLANTCAT,the results of promoter element analysis showed that the CsIAA29 gene promoter contained several regulatory elements related to the regulation of endogenous growth hormone transport in plants,which were involved in photosynthesis and auxin polarity transport in cucumber. The above experimental results proved that CsIAA29 might affect the growth and development of cucumber fruits by regulating endogenous growth hormone.
