Тубулін відіграє ключову роль у функціонуванні систем цитосклету, котрі регулюють такі фундаментальні процеси як поділ та ріст клітини. Коректна ідентифікація ізотипів та визначення ортології генів тубуліну у рослин є нетривіальною задачею, котра вимагає залучення комплексу біоформатичних підходів. В ході проведеного дослідження було здійснено повногеномний пошук та ідентифікацію генів тубуліну у диплоїдних представників роду Camelina, зокрема у видів C. neglecta, C. laxa, C. hispida, що дозволило ідентифікувати повні набори генів α-, β- та γ-тубулінів, а також їх псевдогенів. Філогенетичний аналіз та серія повногеномних порівнянь дозволили встановити ортологію генів тубуліну, визначити ізотипову приналежність кодованих тубулінів та відслідкувати еволюційні зміни в наборах генів тубуліну в ході дивергенції видів та виникнення алогексаплоїдного C. sativa. Генотипування зразків різних представників Camelina за допомогою TBP-, cTBP- та γTBP-маркерів дозволило ефективно диференціювати види на основі оцінки поліморфізму інтронних ділянок генів β- та γ-тубуліну. Одержані результати створюють міцне підгрунтя для подальших досліджень ізотипового та функціонального різноманіття тубулінів у Хрестоцвітих та інших груп квіткових рослин, а також спряють розробленню та впровадженню нових високоефективних систем молекулярних маркерів для ДНК-баркодингу  та маркер-опосередкованої селекції, в тому числі й таких перспективних олійних культур як C. sativa.

Ключові слова: Camelina, дикі родичі, тубулін, геномна еволюція, поліплоїдія, ДНК баркодинг, поліморфізм генів тубуліну
