B-box zinc finger proteins contain one or two B-box domains, and sometimes, a CCT domain, which are involved in many biological processes, such as photomorphogenesis, flowering, anthocyanin synthesis and abiotic stress resistance. But the BBX gene family in pineapple has not been systematically studied. Nineteen BBX genes were detected in pineapple genome and divided into five groups according to phylogenetic analysis. The results of transcriptome analysis and RT-qPCR showed that most of AcBBX members were highly expressed during the flowering process, indicating that AcBBX gene may be involved in flower bud differentiation and morphogenesis. Transcriptional activation analysis showed that AcBBX6 and AcBBX18 had transcriptional activity and were located in the nucleus. Overexpression of AcBBX18 promoted flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana. These results provided a basis for further study functions and regulatory mechanism of BBX members in pineapple floral induction and flower development.
