Analysis for Candidatus Mycoplasma haemohominis in serum of a 42-year-old man, Japan. A) Prediction that de novo assemblies contained bacteria and human DNA sequences. Bacteria-related sequences were identified by using read depth, % GC, and blastn (https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) search results. Read depth indicates how many times next-generation sequencing confirmed the sequence at each nucleotide position. B) Phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA genes of Mycoplasma spp. The tree was constructed by u

B) Phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA genes of Mycoplasma spp. The tree was constructed by using FastTree version 2.1.10 (http://www.microbesonline.org). Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. ID, identification.
