Fruit development is modified by different types of epigenetics. Histone methylation is an important way of epigenetic modification. Eight genes related to H3K4 methyltransferase, named VvH3K4s, were identified and isolated from the grape genome based on conserved domain analysis, which could be divided into 3 categories by the phylogenetic relationship.

Article Synopsis
- DOF proteins are important transcription factors in plants, influencing development and defense, but research on them in grapes is limited.
- In this study, the researchers identified and characterized a specific DOF gene, VvDOF3, from grapevine that can activate transcription and is located in the nucleus.
- The findings showed that VvDOF3 is triggered by substances and infections related to plant defense and enhances resistance to powdery mildew in Arabidopsis through the salicylic acid signaling pathway.
