Figure. Neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences from a postsurgery patient with a blood infection, China, 2022. Tree shows the phylogenetic relationship among the strain DGKH1 from this study (boldface) and closely related species of Spiroplasma. Williamsoniiplasma luminosum PIMN-1T (GenBank accession no. NR025676) was used as an outgroup in the tree; GenBank accession numbers are provided for all sequences. Bootstrap values (expressed as percentages of 1,000 replications) >70% are shown at the branch points. Superscript T indicates type strains. Scale bar indicates substitutions per nucleotide position.
