Distribution of major stress-related cis-elements in the promoter sequences of the 19 ZmJMJ genes. Putative ERE, ABRE, GARE-motif, CGTCA-motif, W box, GCC box, motif IIb, TC-rich repeats, TCA-element, TGA-element, HSE and TGACG-motif core sequences are represented by different symbols as indicated in figure key at the bottom. The cis-elements distributed on the sense strand and reverse strand are indicated above and below the black lines, respectively. ERE: ethylene-responsive element; ABRE: cis-acting element involved in the abscisic acid responsiveness; GARE-motif: gibberellin-responsive element; CGTCA-motif: cis-acting regulatory element involved in the MeJA-responsiveness; W box: elicitation; wounding and pathogen responsiveness; GCC box: elicitation; wounding and pathogen responsiveness; motif IIb: abscisic acid responsive element; TC-rich repeats: cis-acting element involved in defense and stress responsiveness; TCA-element: cis-acting element involved in salicylic acid responsiveness; TGA-element:auxin-responsive element; HSE: cis-acting element involved in heat stress responsiveness; TGACG-motif: cis-acting regulatory element involved in the MeJA-responsiveness. The 1.5 kb sequences upstream of the initiation codon (ATG) of the JHDM genes can be estimated using the scale per 250 bp at the above
