a Syntenic blocks of japonica rice chromosome 6 are found across the genome of Gramineous crops, including B. distachyon, O. sativa indica, Z. mays, S. bicolor, S. italica, and T. aestivum. Locations of CGT-containing regions are linked by black lines. b Graphical map of tandem UGT708A genes within the syntenic blocks. Clade A1 CGT-encoding genes are indicated in red. Clade A2 CGTs are indicated in light blue. Bifunctional C-arabinosyl/glucosyltransferases in Clade B are indicated in gray color. Flavone-2-hydroxylases on the same chromosomes are indicated in purple. For details, see Supplementary Table 3. c A Maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree constructed using PlUGT43 (from Pueraria lobate, KU317801.2, as an out-group) and 68 available UGT708 protein sequences. Bar: 0.21 amino acid substitutions per site. Details of the tree are zoomed in Supplementary Fig. 6. C-Glc C-glucosylation, C-Ara C-arabinosylation.
