Phylogenetic, Molecular, and Biochemical Characterization of Caffeic Acid o-Methyltransferase Gene Family in Brachypodium distachyon

Figure 1

Collinearity analysis of Brachypodium COMT gene-containing regions with the orthologous regions of rice and sorghum genomes. Genomic regions harboring BdCOMT4 (a), BdCOMT1 (b), BdCOMT2 (c), and BdCOMT3 (c) were extracted and the annotated genes in these regions were used to identify orthologous regions from rice and sorghum genomes for collinearity analyses. Annotated genes are represented by arrows with the direction of arrow heads indicating the orientation of transcription. Brachypodium COMT genes are labeled in red. Orthologous genes that are shared in two or more genomes are connected with dashed lines. Duplicate genes in a genome are bracketed.
