Phylogenetic relationships of plants analysed for RCD1-interacting motif in transcription factors with the domain structure shown. (A) Evolution of the plant kingdom showing splitting of land plants into nonvascular and vascular plants, and further into seedless and seed plants. (B) Phylogenetic relationship of gymnospermea (non-flowering) species (modified from PLAZA^34,35,72). (C) Phylogenetic relationship of angiospermea (flowering) species (modified from PLAZA^34,35,72). Species included in this study are highlighted in red. (D) Domains and conserved sequence patterns for NAC013/016/017, DREB2, NAC046, bZIP23, BBX8 and STO TFs. The DBDs are grey, sequence patterns conserved in land plants are black, while sequence patterns conserved specifically in angiosperms are hatched. The positions of the RBS are marked by a red arrow. Black lines below boxes indicate regions where ELMs overlap with the SLiM. TM: transmembrane region. The figures are not drawn to scale.
