The Gretchen Hagen3 (GH3) gene family is necessary for growth and development in plants and is regulated by osmotic stress and various hormones. Although it has been reported in many plants, the evolutionary relationship of GH3 in grape has not been systematically analyzed from the perspective of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous. This study identified and analyzed 188 GH3 genes, which were distinctly divided into 9 subgroups, and found these subgroups have obviously been clustered between monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous. VvGH3-x genes had higher synteny with apple and Arabidopsis than that of rice, and the average Ka/Ks value in monocotyledons was higher than that of dicotyledons. The codon usage index showed that monocotyledons preferred to use G3s, C3s, and GC3s, while dicotyledons preferred to use A3s and T3s. The GH3 genes of grape exhibited different expression patterns in various tissues, different abiotic stresses, and hormonal treatments. The subcellular localization showed that VvGH3-9 was expressed in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Additionally, under 20% PEG treatment, the IAA and ABA contents, relative expression levels of VvGH3-9, relative electrical conductivity (REC), as well as MDA were obviously increased in VvGH3-9 overexpression lines at 72 h. In contrast, compared to WT, the contents of proline and H₂O₂, the activities of POD, SOD, and CAT, and the relative expression levels of drought responsive genes were significantly decreased in overexpressing lines. Collectively, this study provided helpful insight for the evolution of GH3 genes and presented some possibilities to study the functions of GH3 genes in monocotyledons and dicotyledons.
