Simulation of coalescence is helpful for determining the appropriate size of alignment blocks and the interval length between the blocks.
It is noteworthy that the appropriate size of alignment blocks and intervals does not rely on the proportion of the two different recombination rates.
All the alignments were carried out with a minimum alignment ratio of 0.93, and the minimum size of alignment of 20.

For the size of alignments, evolutionary models, and substitution matrices used to generate each figure, see supplementary table S2, Supplementary Material online.
In order to assess the significance of the alignments, we focused on three values of a structure alignment: size of the alignment, size of the double-stranded region of the alignment, and RSmatch score of the alignment.
A coalescence simulation determined the sizes of alignment blocks and intervals between them required to obtain recombination-free blocks with a high frequency.
Thus, we simulated the evolution of nucleotide sequences under certain demographic models to search for the optimal conditions about sizes of alignment blocks and the lengths of intervals between them.
Depending on the size of an alignment, MAFFT automatically chooses a suitable alignment option, such as L-INS-i for < 200 sequences and FFT-NS-2 for > 2,000 sequences [ 33, 34].
