Figure 7From: Identification of an extensive gene cluster among a family of PPOs in Trifolium pratense L. (red clover) using a large insert BAC libraryPhylogenetic tree of coding DNA sequences of selected PPO genes and gene families. DNA sequences of all selected plant species were aligned with the shortest available PPO sequence (PPO1/2 at 1413 bp). These sequences included the conserved tyrosinase domain. Ln Likelihood = -22213.8963; p < 0.01. Species names and PPO annotation were abbreviated for convenience.
