  1. aPutative sequences of cutinases glucanses, polygalacturonases, pectatoliases, cellulases, elicitins and proteins with conserved RXLR motif were selected for this analysis
  2. bPutative gene sequences of actin, cytochrome P450-like protein and NADH hydrogenase were selected for this analysis.
