The R2R3-MYB transcription factor (TF) family is crucial for regulating plant growth, stress response, and fruit ripening. Although this TF family has been examined in a multitude of plants, the R2R3-MYB TFs in Ficus carica, a Mediterranean fruit species, have yet to be characterized. This study identified and classified 63 R2R3-MYB genes (FcMYB1 to FcMYB63) in the F.
