Phylogenetic analyses of NF-YA proteins.

<p>(A) Phylogenetic analysis of ZmNF-YA family members. (B) Phylogenetic analysis of NF-YA proteins from maize, rice, and Arabidopsis. (C) Syntenic relationships of NF-YA genes between maize and rice. Each line represents an orthologous gene. The loci of <i>NF-YA</i> genes involved are shown in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091369#pone.0091369.s008" target="_blank">Table S3</a>. Phylogenetic trees were constructed by neighbor joining with complete deletions as implemented by Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis software, version 5.0 (MEGA5) <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0091369#pone.0091369-Tamura1" target="_blank">[33]</a>. Reliability values at each branch represent bootstrap samples (1000 replicates).
