Phylogenetic clustering and the motif patterns of the GmGRAS members. a Phylogenetic clustering of the GmGRAS members. b Motif patterns of the GmGRAS members. The 20 distinct MEME-motifs were displayed in different colored boxes. The sequence information for each MEME-motif was provided in Table S4 (Additional file 4). The length of the protein can be estimated by using the scale at the bottom. c Schematic of five conservative motifs at the C-terminal regions of the GmGRAS members. The identified MEME-motifs were further classified into five conserved motifs: LHR I, VHIID, LHR II, PFYRE and SAW. The MEME-motifs components of the five conserved motifs were displayed in the top panel Fig. 3c. The incomplete five conserved motif sequences were noted with the red dashed boxes in Fig. 3b and depicted in the bottom panel of Fig. 3c
