From: aes, the gene encoding the esterase B in Escherichia coli, is a powerful phylogenetic marker of the species

Figure 3

Tree representing the distance matrix generated from comparisons between gene tree structures. Gene tree structure comparisons were between trees based on aes sequences, six individual housekeeping genes (trpA, trpB, pabB, putP, icd and polB) and multi-locus sequence typing (concatenation of the six housekeeping genes), with distances derived from path-length difference. Numbers are bootstraps.
