Sequence analysis indicated that the isolated fragment was composed of 748 bp, encoding a glutamic acid rich (22 55%) and lysine rich (14 89%) protein which was hydrophilic throughout and contained seven imperfect repeated motifs of sequence V V E K K N/E E. It had 70 22% homology to the sequence of SB 401 cDNA reported by Liu et al. The deduced amino acid sequence shares 69 96% identity with the reported gene. Southern blot analysis indicated that tsb was one copy in the tomato genome tsb expressed only in pollen.展开更多
