Comparative Genomic Analysis of Stress-Associated Proteins in Peach and Other Plants

Nine stress-associated protein (SAP) genes were identified in the peach (Prunus persica) genome. Author Wendou Zhang performed a genome-wide analysis of the PpSAP family, examining evolutionary relationships, promoter elements, and stress-responsive expression. The dataset, last updated in May 2026, provides a framework for understanding SAP family diversification across plant species.

Use Cases

• Compare SAP gene family conservation and divergence based on phylogenetic clade classification
• Analyze cis-regulatory elements linked to stress and hormone signaling based on promoter analysis
• Investigate temporal expression patterns of candidate genes under drought, salinity, ethylene, and cold stress
• Identify lineage-specific evolutionary differentiation in stress-response genes between Rosaceae and more distant species

Strengths

• Identifies nine specific PpSAP genes (PpSAP1-PpSAP9) for analysis
• Includes promoter analysis revealing cis-regulatory elements for ABA, GA, MYB, and anaerobic response
• Uses RNA-seq expression profiling across multiple abiotic stress conditions

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 very small at 12.2 KB, indicating limited scope
