Phylogenetic tree of LgDes with experimentally validated homologs. Clustalw2 phylogenetic tree output was fed into the Phylodendron tree drawing tool (http://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/treeapp/treeprint-form.html) to construct the tree by neighbor-joining distance analysis. Line lengths indicate the relative distances between nodes. Sequences and gene identifiers are those described in Figure 3. Color codes: LgDes, red, Δ6-FA desaturases green and Δ8-LCB sphingolipid desaturases, blue.
