GUS analyses
Histochemical detection of GUS activity was carried out on inflorescences of 5 week-old plants. Plant
material was first fixed for 10 min in 90% (v/v) acetone on ice, washed, then infiltrated in GUS
solution (500 g/ml 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl--D-glucuronide (X-Gluc); 50 mM sodium
phosphate pH 7; 1 mM potassium ferricyanide; 1 mM potassium ferrocyanide; 10 mM EDTA; 0.01%
triton X-100) for 15 min and incubated at 37C for 8 h. Then, the GUS solution was replaced with
100% (v/v) ethanol during 6 h at room temperature and kept in 70% (v/v) ethanol at 4C.
Phylogenetic analysis
The phylogram was generated using Phylogeny (http://www.phylogeny.fr) from amino acids of
Arabidopsis TCP and rice PCF proteins obtained from Phytozome (http://www.phytozome.net) and
National Center for Biotechnology Information (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) databases. Alignments of
protein sequences were generated using MUSCLE [S15, S16], using Gblocks program to eliminate
poorly aligned positions and divergent regions. Numbers shown in the tree represent the bootstrap
support values (%).
Bioinformatics analyses
Motif-based sequence analysis program (MEME) was used at National Biomedical Computation
Resource (http://meme.nbcr.net) to identify an overrepresented motif based on the degree of sequence
conservation (Fig. S2). Promomer program was used at The Arabidopsis Information Resource
(http://bar.utoronto.ca/ntools/cgi-bin/BAR_Promomer.cgi) to identify subset of genes having at least
one defined motif in their 1-kb promoter sequences (Table S1).
