Table 2.
Proposed nomenclature (in bold and italics) of M. × domestica CalS genes (Gene IDs reported in the Genome Database for Rosaceae GDR are indicated) based on amino acid identities with the orthologous proteins from A. thaliana (GenBank accession numbers are indicated) and P. trichocarpa (identified by locus names). The percentage of amino acid identities between Arabidopsis/apple and poplar/apple are specified, as well as the number of transmembrane helices (TMHs) and the apple protein deduced amino acids length. GSL stands for glucan synthase-like and accession numbers in parentheses refer to the sequences reported in Musetti et al. (2010).
