Main Article

Figure

Phylogenetic relationships of Bartonella ssrA sequences detected in study of zoonotic Bartonella in rabbit fleas, Colorado, USA, compared with reference sequences. This tree was generated based on 253 bp by maximum likelihood and 1,000 bootstrap replicates using the Kimura 2-parameter evolutionary model with gamma-distributed rates among sites. Sample numbers are found in Table 2. GenBank accession numbers are indicated. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
