Figure 5.

A phylogenetic tree of the PRR family in some representative plants. Amino acid sequences of A. thaliana PRRs were characterized previously, whereas those of L. japonicus were done in this study. In addition to these, a set of putative PRR amino acid sequences were analyzed by employing the databases for some other plants, as noted in Fig. 2. In addition, we included a set of putative PRR sequences from Physcomitrella patens (Ppa, a moss) (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/Phypa1_1/Phypa1_1.home.html). Other details were essentially the same as those in Fig. 2.
