Figure

Unrooted phylogenetic trees inferred from comparison of A) outer membrane protein A (ompA) and B) ompB gene sequences of rickettsial species by using the neighbor-joining method. Sequences in boldface were obtained during this study. Numbers at nodes are the proportion of 100 bootstrap resamplings that support the topology shown.
