Genomic collinearity analysis showed that <em>YUC</em> collinear gene pairs widely existed in <em>Brassica</em> species, indicating that this family has a high retention rate in the evolution. Expression profile suggested that the BnYUC family genes tended to express in specific growth/development stages as well as suffering stress/hormone treatments. It suggested that dominant expression of specific members existed with each development stage or treatment, indicating that each BnYUC might have a clear division of work, and play a given biological function.
