The evolution of the number of transcription factors (TF) families from Chlorophytae to Eudicots. Starting from Chlorophytae, the number of TF families increased in number and type. The number of ancestral TF families present in Chlorophytae was 36. New TF families have originated in Charophyta (11) and in Marchantiophyta (7). The last appearance of new TF families occurred before the origin of Bryophyta, with the recruitment of 4 new families (adapted from [12]).
