Molecular characterization of ZAT10-LIKE. a Phylogenetic tree of ZAT10-LIKE with its homologs from other plant species. Multiple sequences were aligned with the amino acid sequence of tomato ZAT10-LIKE and its homologs from Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), rice (Oryza sativa), pepper (Capsicum annuum), and potato (Solanum tuberosum). The asterisks indicate ZAT10-LIKE (Solyc12g088390) and its homologs in tomato. b Subcellular localization of ZAT10-LIKE-YFP fusion protein. The fusion construct (ZAT10-LIKE-YFP) and a nuclear marker (StERF3-RFP) were transiently expressed in tobacco leaves. Bright-field, yellow fluorescent, red fluorescent, and merged images are shown.
