Phylogenetic analysis of photoreceptor phytochrome (A) and cryptochrome (B) genes in plants. The neighbor-joining method [77] was used to construct the phylogenetic trees. The names of genes isolated from Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) start with Cj. Other species names are abbreviated as follows: Acv, Adiantum capillus-veneris (fern); At, Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress); Bd, Brachypodium distachyon (purple false brome); Gm, Glycine max (soybean); Mt, Medicago truncatula (barrel medic); Osj, Oryza sativa (Japanese rice); Pa, Picea abies (Norway spruce); Pg, Picea glauca (white spruce); Pp, Physcomitrella patens subsp. patens (moss); Ps, Picea sitchensis (Sitka spruce); Psy, Pinus sylvestris (Scots pine); Pt, Populus trichocarpa (black cottonwood); Rc, Ricinus communis (castor bean); Sb, Sorghum bicolor (sorghum); Sm, Selaginella moellendorffii (lycophyte); Vv, Vitis vinifera (wine grape); Zm, Zea mays (maize). The number following the species name indicates its NCBI accession number. Trees were rooted with phytochrome and cryptochrome of the moss and lycophyte.
