Phylogenetic analysis. A) Simplified species phylogeny adapted from [21] B) Route66 relationships between maize, Sorghum and rice. The tree was drawn using complete copies of Route66. C) Route66 relationship between maize, Sorghum, rice, sugarcane and their wild relatives and bamboo, based on the alignment of the 1 kb fragment. * represents sequences obtained by PCR cloning. Arrow shows sequences responsible for the phylogenetic incongruence. Numbers indicate bootstrap values in percent. Only the values higher than 80% were kept.
