Supplementary Figure 4: Family tree of the VLHP genes in Chinese spring wheat, barley and maize.

There are two major clades (GT1 clade and VRS1 clade) in this family of genes20. We found putative GT1 orthologues on wheat chromosome 4, which we named TaGT1-2A, -2B, and -2D and a putative barley orthologue that we called HvGT1. There has been a gene duplication of the barley VRS1 orthologue on wheat chromosome 2. We now name these six genes TaVLHP1-2A, -2B, and -2D, and TaVLHP2-2A, -2B, and -2D. In maize, the barley VRS1 gene has also duplicated to become ZmVLHP1 on chromosome 7 and ZmVLHP2 on chromosome 2. The phylogenetic tree was made using an internal version of Greenphyl DB (www.greenphyl.org)38.
