• Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) with short or no dormancy period are easy to germinate before harvest (pre-harvest sprouting, PHS). PHS has seriously decreased seed weight and oil content in B. napus. Short-chain dehydrogenase/ reductase (SDR) genes have been found to related to seed dormancy by promoting ABA biosynthesis in rice and Arabidopsis. In order to clarify whether SDR genes are the key factor of seed dormancy in B. napus, homology sequence blast, protein physicochemical properties, conserved motif, gene structure, cis-acting element, gene expression and variation analysis were conducted in present study. Results shown that 142 BnaSDR genes, unevenly distributed on 19 chromosomes, have been identified in B. napus genome. Among them, four BnaSDR gene clusters present in chromosome A04、A05、C03、C04 were also identified. These 142 BnaSDR genes were divided into four subfamilies on phylogenetic tree. Members of the same subgroup have similar protein characters, conserved motifs, gene structure, cis-acting elements and tissue expression profiles. Specially, the expression levels of genes in subgroup A, B and C were gradually decreased, but increased in subgroup D with the development of seeds. Among seven higher expressed genes in group D, six BnaSDR genes were significantly higher expressed in weak dormancy line than that in nondormancy line. And the significant effects of BnaC01T0313900ZS and BnaC03T0300500ZS variation on seed dormancy were also demonstrated in present study. These findings provide a key information for investigating the function of BnaSDRs on seed dormancy in B. napus.
