Phylogenetic relationship of POTH1-like proteins from five storage root crops (sweet potato, cassava, carrot, radish and sugar beet). For comparison, the deduced amino-acid sequences for POTH1-like proteins from five storage root crops plus POTH1 of potato were analyzed. StBMI1 (a potato non-POTH1 related protein) amino-acid sequences are included as controls. Amino-acid sequence alignments and phylogenetic analysis were performed using T-COFFEE (hRp://www.ch.embnet.org/ soaware/TCoffee.html) and graphical representation of the phylogenetic tree was performed with TreeDyn (v198.3) [42]. Accessions for protein sequences used are written after protein names in the phylogenetic tree. In the phylogenetic tree, the branch length is proportional to the number of substitutions per site and the tree is rerooted using midpoint rooting in TreeDyn.
