Phylogenetic relationships, gene structure and architecture of conserved protein motifs in AP2/ERF genes from tartary buckwheat. a The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the full-length sequences of tartary buckwheat AP2/ERF proteins using Geneious R11 software. b Exon-intron structure of tartary buckwheat AP2/ERF genes. Yellow boxes indicate untranslated 5′- and 3′-regions; blue boxes indicate exons; black lines indicate introns. The AP2 domains are highlighted by red boxes and B3 domain by blackish green boxes. The number indicates the phases of the corresponding introns. c The motif composition of tartary buckwheat AP2/ERF proteins. The motifs, numbers 1–10, are displayed in different colored boxes. The sequence information for each motif is provided in Table S2. The protein length can be estimated using the scale at the bottom
