Fig. 3. The PvSL1 protein is a member of the FtsH protease family in common bean.

a Neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree of FtsH family proteins in Arabidopsis and common bean. Protein sequences were retrieved from phytozome (https://phytozome-next.jgi.doe.gov/info/Pvulgaris_v2_1). FtsH family members have an ATPase domain (blue box) and a Zn²⁺ metalloprotease domain (purple box) (http://smart.embl.de/). b, c The expression levels of Phvul.009G241100 and Phvul.009G021400 in Dalong1 and pvsl1 under 100 and 75 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ light conditions. Unifoliate of 10-day-old seedlings were used to extract total RNA. Phvul.007G041700.1, homologous to TIP41 in common bean, was used as a reference gene. Error bars indicate SD
