Phylogenetic analysis of fungal alternative oxidases (AOX). An11g08460 and An11g04810 were used as a query to search in the NCBI nr database for retrieving homologs (cutoff E-value 1E-10, partial sequences ignored). Fungal AOX homologs and the reference non-fungal AOX sequences were aligned to build a phylogenetic tree with 1,000 bootstraps (bootstrap value shown in percentages), using the software ClustalW [52].
