a, Genomic synteny between chromosome 2 of O. sativa and chromosomes 8 and 10 of Z. latifolia. Syntenic genomic blocks are illustrated by the grey lines. The homologous genomic regions of phytocassane biosynthetic gene clusters between O. sativa and Z. latifolia are highlighted in red. b Gene-level synteny between phytocassane biosynthetic gene cluster of O. sativa and Z. latifolia; CYP450 genes are colored dark yellow; genes coding terpene synthases are colored dark blue. The genes unrelated to the cluster are in grey. c Gene co-expression pattern for the genes in the two sub-gene clusters in chromosomes 8 and 10. d, Proposed evolutionary history of the phytocassane biosynthetic gene cluster in the Z. latifolia, L. perrieri, and Oryza species.
