Figure 2. Phylogeny of adult Angiostrongylus cantonensis lungworm based on cytochrome c sequences in definitive and intermediate hosts, Madagascar, 2024. Labels are GenBank accession numbers, colored by location. The phylogenetic tree was constructed using the Tamura-Nei 1993 plus gamma distribution model with 10,000 iterations in MEGA X (https://www.megasoftware.net). All bootstrap values are shown on corresponding nodes. Angiostrongylus mackerrasae was used as the outgroup. Scale bar indicates number of substitutions per site.
