| Resumen en inglés | The ALOG gene family, which was named after its earliest identified members ( Arabidopsis LSH1 and Oryza G1), encodes a class of transcription factors (TF) characterized by the presence of a highly conserved ALOG domain. These proteins are found in various plant species playing regulatory roles in plant growth, development, and morphological diversification of inflorescence. The functional characterization of these genes in some plant species has demonstrated their involvement in floral architecture. In this study, we used a genome-wide and phylogenetic approach to gain insights into plants’ origin, diversification, and functional aspects of the ALOG gene family. In total, 648 ALOG homologous genes were identified in 77 Viridiplantae species, and their evolutionary relationships were inferred using maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses. Our results suggested that the ALOG gene family underwent several rounds of gene duplication and diversification during angiosperm evolution. Furthermore, we found three functional orthologous groups in Solanaceae species. The study provides insights into the evolutionary history and functional diversification of the ALOG gene family, which could aid in understanding the mechanisms underlying floral architecture in angiosperms |
