description TCP transcription factors are a unique transcription family in higher plants, and play important roles in plant development, responses to environmental stresses and phytohormones. Radish is an important crop and widely cultivated worldwide. However, genome-wide identification and expression analysis of TCP family in radish has not been reported yet. In this study, 32 <i>RsTCP</i> genes were identified from the whole genome. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the RsTCP family can be divided into two major groups and three subgroups, namely Class I (PCF), Class II (CIN), and Class II (CYC/TB1). Chromosome mapping showed that 32 genes were distributed on all nine chromosomes of radish. Transcriptome data indicated that the transcription of <i>RsTCP</i> genes differed between tissues and developmental stages. Multiple phytohormone-related <i>cis</i>-acting elements in the promoter region of <i>RsTCPs</i> and several post-translational modification sites in RsTCP protein sequences were identified. The real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis indicated that several <i>RsTCP</i> genes changed significantly in response to the treatments, including low temperature, drought, salt, gibberellin (GA<sub>3</sub>), and abscisic acid. Among them, <i>RsTCP16</i> showed significantly higher levels in leaves than in other radish tissues, and the transcription of <i>RsTCP16</i> was significantly upregulated under the five treatments, especially during low temperature, salt shock, and GA<sub>3</sub> response, suggesting that <i>RsTCP16</i> could be involved in the development of radish leaves and the response to stress. In summary, these results provided a basis for further exploring the molecular mechanism of <i>RsTCP</i> genes in radish.
