Phylogenetic relationships among members of the Batatas complex. a Phylogenetic relationships among Batatas complex accessions inferred using the species-tree method ASTRAL-II. Bootstrap support values are shown next to the branches. Relationships among I. trifida and I. batatas accessions were not resolved. b Phylogenetic network of the Batatas complex including pseudolikelihood estimates for hybridization events in the ancestor of red, green and yellow clades as well as in the ancestry of cultivated sweetpotato. Blue lines indicate the two-reticulation events inferred in PhyloNet. Below the phylogenetic network are −log-likelihood scores for the tree generated in PhyloNet under the zero-reticulation model (Supplementary Fig. 20d) and the network estimated under the two-reticulation model. Color bars at the right of each tree denote the six inferred major lineages
