description Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is an important component of the signal transduction pathway, which plays important roles in regulating plant growth and development, and abiotic stress. Potato (<i>Solanum tuberosum</i> L.) is one of the most popular tuber crops in the world. Genome-wide identification and analysis of the <i>MAPK</i> and <i>MAPKK</i> gene family in potato is not clear. A total of 20 <i>MAPK</i> genes and 8 <i>MAPKK</i> genes were identified in the potato genome. A conservative motif analysis showed that the MAPK protein contained a typical TxY phosphorylation site, and the MAPKK protein contained a conservative characteristic motif S/T-x5-S/T. Phylogenetic analysis showed that potato <i>MAPK</i> (mitogen-activated protein kinase) and <i>MAPKK</i> (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase) were similar to Arabidopsis, including four groups of members A, B, C and D. Gene structure and promoter sequence analysis showed that all 28 gene family members of potato <i>Solanum tuberosum MAPK</i> (<i>StMAPK</i>) and <i>StMAPKK</i> have coding regions (CDS), and family members in the same group have similar intron and exon compositions, and that most cis-acting elements upstream of gene promoters elements have related to stress response. Chromosome location analysis found that MAPKs were unevenly distributed on 11 chromosomes, while MAPKKs were only distributed on chromosomes Chr. 03 and Chr. 12. Collinearity analysis showed that <i>StMAPKK3</i> and <i>StMAPKK6</i> have the same common ancestors among potato, pepper, and tomato. qRT-PCR results showed that the relative expressions of <i>StMAPK14</i> and <i>StMAPKK2</i> were significantly upregulated under low-temperature stress. These results could provide new insights into the characteristics and evolution of the <i>StMAPK</i> and <i>StMAPKK</i> gene family and facilitate further exploration of the molecular mechanism responsible for potato abiotic stress responses.
