Comparison of the SAM1 (a) and SAM4 (b) cluster homologs in the species/strains of Fusarium in which they occur. The phylogenetic trees on the left were inferred by maximum likelihood analysis of alignments of nucleotide sequences of the PKS-gene coding regions from the respective clusters. Numbers near branches are bootstrap values based on 1000 pseudoreplicates. The diagram to the upper right depicts two different arrangements of genes in each cluster type. Yellow arrows indicate PKS, AT and SDR genes; and blue arrows indicate genes that encode other types of proteins. The arrows point in the direction of transcription. Numbers below arrows are locus tag numbers for the two species. Prefixes for locus tag number of genes for all species are shown in Additional file 3. The table on the bottom right indicates the functions of genes in the cluster based on sequence homology to genes of known function. Numbers after species names indicate strain numbers when more than one strain of a species was included in this study. Five-digit strain numbers without letters indicate NRRL strains
