Figure 2From: An easy, simple inexpensive test for the specific detection of Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum based on sequence analysis of the pmrA genePhylogenetic tree based on a comparison of pmrA sequences (A) and 16S rRNA (B) for Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp . carotovorum. (C) Accession numbers of 16S rRNA sequences used for sequence alignments and construction of phylogenetic tree. The branching pattern was generated by the Neighbor-Joining method [31]. The numbers at the nodes indicate the levels of bootstrap support based on a Neighbor-Joining analysis of 500 resampled data sets. The evolutionary distances were computed using the Maximum Composite Likelihood method [32] and are in the units of the number of base substitutions per site. The generation of tree was conducted in MEGA5 [33].Back to article page
