Global Arsenophonus phylogeny constructed with representative haplotype sequences of this study and with Arsenophonus sequences from the literature[17][Genbank: GU226783–GU226823]. This tree was constructed using maximum-likelihood (ML) analyses based on the concatenated sequences of the three genes: fbaA, ftsK and yaeT. The GTR+G evolution model was used to reconstruct this phylogeny, and recombinants were discarded from the analysis (Figure 2). Bootstrap values are shown at the nodes. For nodes also supported by Bayesian inferences, the corresponding posterior probability is shown after the bootstrap value obtained by ML estimations. Arsenophonus from Hippobosca equina was used as the outgroup. Strains retrieved from the literature are named by their host species and are in italics.
