DNA, men and plants

Google has failed me. I know men and chimpanzees share over 98% of their DNA, but what's the % overlap for men and plants? I must have read it somewhere, becacuse I have a lingering memory that the overlap is a lot higher than you might guess owing to the sequences for basic metabolic processes.

Can anyone help?
