Phylogenetic relationship of JAZ proteins among wheat and other species. The full-length amino acid sequences of 34 T. aestivum, 6 S. moellendorffii, 12 A. thaliana, 15 O. sativa, 7 P. patens, 6 maize, 15 B. distachyon, 15 S. bicolor, 13 P. sitchensis, 8 Ae. tauschii and 7 H. brasiliensis genes were aligned by using ClustalX and the phylogenetic tree was constructed using MEGA 6.0 by the neighbor-joining method with 1000 bootstrap replicates. Each TaJAZ protein is indicated by a red dot. Two major groups, group I and II, are represented by the red and blue, respectively
