In order to reveal the mechanism of flower development and provide a theoretical basis for solving the problems of flowering in the sugar apple industry, the Auxin Response Factor (ARF) family genes were identified and the expression patterns were analyzed. Based on transcriptome sequencing, 11 AsARF genes were selected and identified. The biological functions of AsARF family genes were preliminarily analyzed by homologous evolution analysis, protein domain analysis, subcellular localization, qRT-PCR, and other techniques. The AsARFs were divided into five classes based on phylogenetic analysis. The proteins had molecular weight varying from 73.85 to 112.51 kDa and isoelectric point from 5.42 to 7.63. All the AsARFs contained two domains of DBD and MR, and, except for AsARF3a, 6a and 6b, they also all contained a CTD domain. Subcellular location prediction results showed that the AsARF members were mainly located in the nucleus. Based on amino acid enrichment in the intermediate region of the protein, AsARF5a, AsARF5b, AsARF6c, AsARF6d, AsARF7 and AsARF16 were speculated to be transcriptional activators, while AsARF2, AsARF3a, AsARF3b, AsARF6a and AsARF6b were presumed to be transcriptional repressors. Three CTD domain-deleted ARF genes were identified and they may have unique biological functions. The results of subcellular location experiments showed that AsARF2, AsARF3a and AsARF6a were localized in the cell nucleus. Real-time quantitative PCR results showed that AsARF3a, AsARF3b, AsARF5a, AsARF5b, AsARF6a and AsARF7 genes were expressed more in the inflorescent meristem. AsARF2 and AsARF6b genes were highly expressed in flower buds. AsARF2, AsARF3a, AsARF5a, AsARF5b, AsARF6b, AsARF6c and AsARF16 genes were predominantly expressed in normal flowers, while the expression of AsARF3b, AsARF6a, AsARF6d and AsARF7 genes in malformed flowers was greater than that in normal flowers. These results suggest that AsARF may play key roles in regulating the flower development in sugar apple. The high expression of AsARF6b and AsARF6c in normal flowers and AsARF6a and AsARF6d in abnormal flowers indicate that they play important roles in the normal development of flowers.
