Figure 2.
Phylogenetic relationships and gene structure analysis of cystatin genes in Brachypodium. (A) Rooted homology tree was constructed from the alignment of full-length amino acid sequences using the DNAMAN package. (B) Gene structure of BdC genes. Lavender solid boxes represent exons; black lines represent introns; yellow boxes represents up/down stream regions. Intronic phases were indicated by numbers 0, 1, and 2.
