Kelch motif ACBPs were cloned from
B. napus that were grown for 60 days in Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China (semi winter-type rapeseed growing area). The oil content of the material was about 50 %. We conducted RNA extraction from siliques, by using
Trizol RNA isoplus (Takara). To synthesize the first cDNA strand,
RevertAid First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit by Thermo Scientific was used. Primers were designed based on kelch motif
BrACBPs and
BoACBPs sequences. Oligo7 software was operated to design these primers (sequences in Table S1, Additional file
7). The amplification was performed with KOD enzyme and then with ES Taq enzyme. The targeted genes were purified by CWBIO Gel extraction kit. They were then inserted into
T-vector PMD19 by Takara Bio Inc. and integrated into
E. coli DH5- α. Genes from positive colonies were consequently sequenced.
Vector NTI Advanced 11 software (Invitrogen Corporation) was used to align the obtained sequences with CDS of
BrACBPs and
BoACBPs to acquire CDS of
BnACBPs, which were translated into protein sequences. Additionally, all four classes of
BnACBPs were acquired from the CNS-Genoscope database (
http://www.genoscope.cns.fr/brassicanapus/) [24 ] with
BrACBPs and
BoACBPs as query.
