Phenetic relationships of RIRE1, Kangourou, and Wallabi in the genus Oryza: The neighbor-joining tree was constructed based on the alignments given in Supplemental data #3. For each tree, the dot shows the branch separating the O. australiensis sequences from the others. The number given near the dot corresponds to the bootstrap value. Color coding: black for the A-genome species; gray for O. punctata; orange forO. minuta; green for O. officinalis; blue for O. alta, and red for O. australiensis. The numbers of aligned sequences used to build the tree were as follows: for RIRE1: 752 O. australiensis sequences and 113 other Oryza sequences; for Kangourou: 570 O. australiensis sequences and 67 others; for Wallabi: 757 O. australiensis sequences and 422 others.
