Background: , a soil-borne fungal pathogen, causes significant yield losses in many plants, including cultivated strawberry (, 2n = 8x = 56). Thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs) are a large and complex family of proteins that play a vital role in plant host defense and other physiological processes.

Methods: To enhance our understanding of the antifungal activity of TLPs (), we investigated the genome-wide identification of gene families and their expression patterns in plants upon pathogen infection.
