Figure

Phylogenetic tree of intragenic space sequences showing 2 groups among Borrelia recurrentis and 4 groups among B. duttonii. Tree created by using the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean. The B. recurrentis groups overlap with B. duttonii groups. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. Tz, Tanzania.
