HbCYP Genes in Rubber Tree: Genome-wide Identification and Expression Profiles

Hevea brasiliensis research provides a genome-wide catalog of 238 identified HbCYP genes, classified into 9 clans and 43 subfamilies. The dataset includes analysis of gene structures, promoter motifs, and expression profiles across tissues and under treatments like methyl jasmonate and ethylene. It was authored by Qianyi Lyu and last updated on 2026-04-22.

Use Cases

• Study the evolution of the CYP gene family based on the identification of 64 tandem and 119 WGD or segmental duplications.
• Analyze tissue-specific gene expression patterns based on differential HbCYPs expression across H. brasiliensis organs.
• Investigate stress response pathways based on promoter analysis revealing cis-acting elements for methyl jasmonate and light responsiveness.
• Model protein interaction networks based on highlighted collaborations between HbCYPs and key rubber biosynthesis enzymes like HMGS.

Strengths

• Contains a systematic identification of 238 HbCYP genes with detailed classification into clans and subfamilies.
• Includes analysis of 456 methyl jasmonate-responsive and 3,302 light-responsive cis-acting elements in promoter regions.
• Expression data is validated by RT-qPCR, and functional analysis is supported by Gene Ontology results.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (358.1 KB), indicating a limited scope focused on gene cataloging rather than large-scale omics data.
