Relatedness of basil monoterpene and sesquiterpene synthases to similar proteins in other species of Lamiaceae. Phylogenetic tree was constructed using the nearest neighbor-joining method. Sequences analyzed include the basil proteins in Figure 3, 1,8-cineole synthase from Salvia officinalis (Wise et al., 1998; GenBank accession no. AF051899), 4S-limonene synthase from Mentha spicata (Colby et al., 1993; GenBank accession no. L13459), (R)-LIS from Mentha citrata (Crowell et al., 2002; GenBank accession no. AY083653); LIS from Perilla frutescens (GenBank accession no. AF444798); and Mentha piperita (E)-β-farnesene synthase (Crock et al., 1997; GenBank accession no. AF024615).
