Figure

Phylogenetic tree of Ehrlichia citrate synthase (gltA) and heat shock protein (groEL) genes constructed by the maximum-likelihood method of MEGA6 software (http://www.megasoftware.net). The total length of 2 concatenated genes is 1,045 bp. Hasegawa-Kishino-Yano with invariable sites was selected as the best model based on Bayesian information criterion scores. Numbers on the branches represent bootstrap support with 500 bootstrap replicates. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
