Phylogenetic analysis of the myb114 genes of six species of Melastoma in China. The tree was constructed using the maximum parsimony algorithm. The twig trichome trait of each species was shown with a photo. The W-group and R-group haplotypes of M. normale are indicated in the boxes with dotted lines. Nodes with bootstrap value less than 40% are collapsed. * indicates the haplotype introgressed from M. candidum. The myb114 introgression events are shown on the chloroplast genome tree of these species, with the blue dotted arrow representing introgression from an unsampled/extinct relative of M. dodecandrum to M. normale, and the green dotted arrow representing very recent or ongoing introgression from M. candidum to M. normale
