    TOPLESS/TOPLESS-RELATED (TPL/TPR) proteins belong to the Groucho (Gro)/Tup1 family co-repressors and act as broad co-repressors that modulate multiple phytohormone signalling pathways and various developmental processes in plant. However, TPL/TPR co-repressors so far are poorly understood in the rapeseed, one of the world-wide important oilseed crops. In this study, we comprehensively characterized eighteen TPL/TPR genes into five groups in the rapeseed genome. Members of TPL/TPR1/TPR4 and TPR2/TPR3 had close evolutionary relationship, respectively. All TPL/TPRs had similar expression patterns and encode conserved protein domain. In addition, we demonstrated that BnaA9.TPL interacted with all known plant repression domain (RD) sequences, which were distributed in non-redundant 24,238 (22.6 %) genes and significantly enriched in transcription factors in the rapeseed genome. These transcription factors were largely co-expressed with the TPL/TPR genes and involved in diverse pathway, including phytohormone signal transduction, protein kinases and circadian rhythm. Furthermore, BnaA9.TPL was revealed to regulate apical embryonic fate by interaction with Bna.IAA12 and suppression of PLETHORA1/2. BnaA9.TPL was also identified to regulate leaf morphology by interaction with Bna.AS1 (Asymmetric leaves 1) and suppression of KNOTTED-like homeobox genes and YABBY5. These data not only suggest the rapeseed TPL/TPRs play broad roles in different processes, but also provide useful information to uncover more TPL/TPR-mediated control of plant development in rapeseed.
