Abstract

Phylogenetic relationships of Phosphoglucomutase enzyme sequences was performed in two members i.e. Helianthus annus L. and Lactuca sativa L. of family Asteraceae by applying CLUSTAL-W programme. Ten sequences of phosphoglucomutase (PGM) from each species those are already deposited on NCBI were subjected to Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA). Dendrogram reveals that 20 phosphoglucomutase sequence divided into two distinct clusters. The cluster-I consist of 8 phosphoglucomutase sequences from Lactuca sativa, whereas cluster-II consist of 12 phosphoglucomutase sequences belonging to Helianthus annus L. and Lactuca sativa L.
