Figure 2. Phylogenetic analysis of Borrelia spp. in ticks, Khammouan Province, Laos. The tree was constructed by using partial nucleotide sequences (299–323 bp) of the flaB gene, the Kimura 2-parameter model, and the neighbor-joining method. Analyses were supported by bootstrap analysis with 1,000 replications. Numbers along branches are bootstrap values. GenBank accession numbers are shown for reference sequences. Sample numbers for each tick are shown in parentheses. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
