Gene structures and protein motifs of bZIP gene family in wax gourd. A Phylogenetic tree of wax gourd bZIP gene family. Different colors represented different subgroups, and the majuscule was the name of the subgroup. B Protein motifs in bZIP members. The colorful boxes delineated different motifs, and the black box (motif1) represented bZIP domain. C Gene structures of wax gourd bZIP gene family. Exons, 5’ UTR, and 3’ UTR were respectively displayed using red, dark blue, and light blue rectangles. Black lines denoted introns. The clustering was performed according to the results of phylogenetic analysis
