Total number of MADS-box genes in 24 plant species and classification into Type I and Type II genes. The complete set of MADS-box genes was previously known for P. trichocarpa, G. max, C. sativus, A. thaliana, O. sativa, S. moellendorffii, and P. patens (indicated by bold writing) [6,8,9,21,22,23,24]. * The remaining MADS-box genes could not be classified into Type I or Type II.
