Figure 1From: Proposal to create subspecies of Rickettsia conorii based on multi-locus sequence typing and an emended description of Rickettsia conoriiUnrooted phylogenetic tree derived from the comparison of sequences of the complete glt A gene from rickettsiae closely related to R. conorii and other validated Rickettsia species. The analysis used the Neighbor Joining method and the Kimura 2 parameter as described in the Methods section. Bootstrap values are indicated at the nodes of the phylogenetic tree. GenBank accession numbers are indicated in parentheses for each taxon.Back to article page
