From: Bacterial diversity obtained by culturable approaches in the gut of Glossina pallidipes population from a non sleeping sickness focus in Tanzania: preliminary results

Fig. 2

Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree based on the comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showing the relationships between Glossina isolated bacterial strains and the respective other bacteria species: 16S rRNA-based tree reflecting the phylogenetic relationships of staphylococci strains isolated by culture of G. pallidipes midguts. The tree is based on a parsimony tree and a data set containing all available almost complete 16S rRNA sequences from isolated strains and selected reference of staphylococci as well as Micrococcus agilis. The tree topology was corrected according to the results of distance matrix as well as maximum-parsimony analyses (100 re-sampling). Visualisation of the tree was made with TreeDyn. The bar indicates estimated sequence divergence
