Schematic structure of the Vat cluster in Cucumis melo.

Caption

The Vat cluster delimited by the M5-M4 markers and localized at the end of the chromosome 5 contained two to nine Vat-x or Pseudo-Vat-x and one Vat-Rev or Pseudo-VatRev and two or three oxidosqualene genes. Each Vat homolog contained one to seven repeats of a conserved motif of 65 amino acids (R65aa) in their LRR2 domain.
