Alignment of HSP70 proteins from selected crop species: Protein sequences were analyzed using DNA analysis software DNASTAR. For protein alignment, Clustal V of MegAlign was used in which clusters were aligned as pairs, then collectively as sequence groups to produce the overall alignment. Comparison of PgHsp70 with deduced amino acid sequences of chloroplast of Oryza sativa (accession no. ABA97211), Pisum sativum (accession no. CAA 49147), Cucumix sativus (accession no. ABM92419) and Arabidopsis thaliana (accession no. Np194159).
