Synteny analysis of MADS-box genes between S. italica and other plant species. (A) Synteny analysis of the M-type MADS-box genes between S. italica and three representative plant species (B. distachyon, Oryza sativa, Zea mays). (B) Synteny analysis of the MIKC-type MADS-box genes between S. italica and six representative plant species (A. thaliana, F. tataricum, B. rapa, B. distachyon, O. sativa, Z. mays). Gray lines in the background indicate the collinear blocks within S. italica and other plant genomes, while red lines highlight the syntenic MADS gene pairs.
