Figure 1From: Characterization of a putative grapevine Zn transporter, VvZIP3, suggests its involvement in early reproductive development in Vitis vinifera LPhylogenetic relationship between VvZIP3 and ZIP proteins from Vitis and Arabidopsis thaliana. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using the software MEGA 4.0 (http://www.megasoftware.net/mega.html). It is assumed that the length of the branches is proportional to phylogenetic distances. Position of VvZIP3 in the not rooted tree is marked by a black arrowhead. Grapevine protein sequences were deduced from the nucleotide sequence obtained in this work (VvZIP3) or from the GenBank accessions (see methods).Back to article page
