Figure 6

Phylogenetic tree of proteins containing an EUL domain. Maximum Likelihood tree depicting evolutionary relationships among EUL domains from proteins from a wide variety of plant taxa. Scale bar indicates corrected amino acid distance. Partition A represents the root (see discussion). Pairs of duplicated genes are numbered in the n, n' format, and lettered where applicable to distinguish symmetric subbranches of evolution after the duplication event. Lectin abbreviations and accession numbers or loci can be found in Additional file 3: Table S2. All sequences used for the construction of the dendrogram are listed in Additional file 1: Figure S5.
