Phylogenetic tree of SMC protein sequences from <i>Arabidopsis</i> and <i>Vitis vinifera</i>.

<p>The amino acid sequences of all <i>Arabidopsis</i> SMC proteins and those of <i>Vitis vinifera</i> were aligned using the MUSCLE program and subjected to phylogenetic analysis by the distance with neighborjoining method using MEGA5 programme. Accession numbers for Arabidopsis sequences are AtSMC1 (CAB77587), AtSMC2 (CAB61972.1), AtSMC3 (BAB10693.1), AtSMC4 (BAB11491.1). AtSKD1 (AEC08019.1) and VvSKD1 (XP_002266534.1) were used as outgroups.
