Sentence examples for cluster of maize from inspiring English sources
A common evolutionary origin of this cluster of maize P450 genes by successive gene duplications has been proposed [ 8, 16, 20].
The cluster formed by S. italica CYP71C88, C89 and C92 for instance, was syntenic to the cluster of maize CYP71C36, C56 and C57 on chromosome 2 and phylogenetically distant from the Bx cluster.
The Bx gene cluster of maize is therefore of great interest, because it consists of an apparent structural cluster of four CYP71C genes in close genomic proximity with members of other gene families that, together, are known to direct the synthesis of DIMBOA glucoside from a common metabolic intermediate, indole 3-glycerol phosphate [ 20].
Within the same group II the monocot cluster included two genes of maize and a single gene of wheat and rice, indicating that the duplication occurred in maize after its divergence.
The lack of maize clusters with > 5 elements may be in part an effect of small sample, but nonetheless the difference in single-linkage clusters among species is suggestive that patterns of helitron diversity vary substantially among angiosperm species.
The rice-specific genes and gene families were identified based on homolog clustering with annotated genes of maize and Arabidopsis using the method previously described by McGinnis and Madden [ 92].
Elongation of the cluster to Bx5 by the P450 duplications and gene rearrangements described above led to cluster of 5 genes in maize.
Our phylogenomic analysis of the origin of the Bx cluster in maize shows that the first two closely linked genes of the benzoxazinoid pathway are located at a chromosomal region that has no synteny conservation with the genomes of other Poaceae beyond Bx1/Bx2 themselves, and is therefore unique.
The Bx2 to Bx5 genes are clustered on the short arm of maize chromosome 4 [ 8, 9].
Interestingly, this cluster arose from one of the progenitor of maize before allotetraploidization, whereas the 19-kDa α-zein cluster on chromosome 1 and 4 arose from the other homeolog (Xu and Messing 2008).
