Reviewer/Referee Access Agreement

You have reached this page using a special URL that is intended to be used by journal editors and reviewers or referees of a paper that is under consideration for publication. This URL gives you access to the submitted data and metadata associated with analyses and results presented in the paper under review. Please carefully examine the data paying special attention to the following:
  • The citation data (authors, year, citation, abstract) should be complete, except for information that is not yet known (e.g. volume or page numbers).
  • Verify that nexus files are error-free and executable by software programs (e.g. PAUP, Mesquite, MacClade, etc). Please make sure that the taxon labels for trees are identical, or a subset of, the taxon labels in data matrices connected by way of an analysis. If taxon labels in trees do not match with taxon labels in associated data matrices, the data will not be useful to the scientific community.
  • Verify that data are not missing and that opportunities to supply valuable metadata are not overlooked. For example, TreeBASE can store Genbank accession numbers, museum voucher IDs, latitude and longitudes for specimen localities, character names and character state names for morphological data, etc. Including these metadata are sometimes overlooked by submitting authors, yet sharing this metadata is extremely valuable to the scientific community. Please use your power as a reviewer to encourage the sharing of richly-annotated metadata.
  • Verify that analyses are not missing and that, where possible, analysis entries include software commands (e.g. the contents of a PAUP block or MrBayes block) so that analyses can be replicated easily (e.g. commands that describe substitution models, data partitions, and heuristic search parameters).
  • Verify that taxon labels are mapped against TreeBASE's taxonomic dictionary. Data in TreeBASE can only be found using a taxon name search if the taxon labels are properly mapped.
By clicking the 'OK' button below, you agree to keep these data confidential; you agree not to retain these data after completing your report to the journal editor; you agree not to use these data or knowledge of these data for the purposes of your research until and unless the paper under review has been published and the data have been made available to the general public; you agree to keep the URL confidential.

Abstract

Background: Calcium ions, which are the most versatile secondary messenger found in plants, are involved in regulation of diverse arrays of plant growth and development, as well as biotic and abiotic stress responses. The calcineurin B-like genes are one of the most important genes that act as calcium sensors. Results: In the present study, we identified calcineurin B-like gene family members from 38 different plant species and assigned each a unique nomenclature. Sequence analysis showed that the CBL proteins contain three calcium binding EF-hand domains that held several conserved Asp and Glu amino acid residues. The third EF-hand of the CBL genes was found to posses the D/E-x-D calcium binding sensor motif. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the CBL genes fall into six different groups. Additionally, except group B CBLs, all the CBL protein was found to contain N-terminal palmitoylation and myristoylation sites. An evolutionary study showed that CBL genes are evolved from a common ancestor and subsequently diverged during the course of evolution of land plants. Tajima?s neutrality test showed that CBL genes are highly polymorphic and evolved via decreasing population size due to balanced selection. Differential expression analysis with cold and heat stress led to differential modulation of OsCBL genes.Conclusions: The basic architecture of plant CBL genes is conserved throughout the plant kingdom. Evolutionary analysis showed that CBL genes evolved from a common ancestor of lower eukaryotic plant lineage and led to broadening of the calcium signaling events in higher eukaryotic organisms.
