Promoter sequence analysis was performed via PLACE. Cis-element name, sequence motifs and signalling pathway are presented. Up to copies/promoter indicates the highest number of cis-acting element found in one promoter. * indicates that the motif is found in all promoters except VvPMT2. ** indicates that the motif is found in all promoters except VvPMT2, VvTMT3 and VvPMT2.
