Phylogenetic relationships of LAZY genes from various plant species. A Phylogenetic tree of LAZY1 proteins identified from various plant species. Plant classifications are coded with different colours as shown in the legend, and the plant species and sequence accession IDs are listed. B Phylogenetic tree of the LAZY family protein sequences from eight plant species (Os: Oryza sativa, At: Arabidopsis thaliana, Sl: Solanum lycopersicon, Pt: Populus tomentosa, Vv: Vitis vinifera, Pp: Prunus persica, Ac: Actinidia chinensis, and Cs: Camellia sinensis). The phylogenetic trees were generated by MEGA 6.0 with the neighbor-joining algorithm with bootstrap analysis for 1000 replicates, and a p-distance model was used to ensure that the divergent domains could contribute to the topology of the NJ tree
