Fig. 2From: Deep divergence and rapid evolutionary rates in gut-associated Acetobacteraceae of antsMaximum likelihood phylogeny of Acetobacteraceae 16S rDNA. Alignment of 1,333 unambiguous nucleotide positions was performed with SSU-align. The tree was reconstructed using a maximum likelihood approximation with a GTR + Γ + PInv model of nucleotide substitution. Node support was generated from 1,000 bootstrap resamplings. Taxa are colored based on lifestyle and host group: monophyletic ant-specific AAB clade (green); gut symbionts of various insects (orange); free living taxa (black). Roseomonas terrae is the outgroup. Letters at select nodes correspond to nodes used for relative rate analysis, as listed in Table 2 Back to article page
