Auxin response factors (ARFs) play central roles in conferring auxin-mediated responses through selection of target genes in plants. Despite their physiological importance, systematic analysis of  ARF  genes in potato have not been investigated yet. Our genome-wide analysis identified 20  StARF  ( Solanum tuberosum  ARF) genes from potato and found that they are unevenly distributed in all the potato chromosomes except chromosome X. Sequence alignment and conserved motif analysis suggested the presence of all typical domains in all but StARF18c that lacks B3 DNA-binding domain. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that potato ARF could be clustered into 3 distinct subgroups, a result supported by exon-intron structure, consensus motifs, and domain architecture . In silico  expression analysis and quantitative real-time PCR experiments revealed that several  StARF s were expressed in tissue-specific, biotic/abiotic stress-responsive or hormone-inducible manners, which reflected their potential roles in plant growth, development or under various stress adaptions. Strikingly, most  StARF s were identified as highly abiotic stress responsive, indicating that auxin signaling might be implicated in mediating environmental stress-adaptation responses. Taken together, this analysis provides molecular insights into  StARF  gene family, which paves the way to functional analysis of  StARF  members and will facilitate potato breeding programs.
