Figure 1From: Characterization of a novel Lactobacillus species closely related to Lactobacillus johnsonii using a combination of molecular and comparative genomics methodsPhylogenetic tree showing relationships among 16S rRNA gene sequences of species in the Lactobacillus acidophilus group, including Lactobacillus taiwanensis , and species representing different lineages within the genus Lactobacillus. The tree was created using a maximum-likelihood approach and numbers at branch points are bootstrap values (based on 500 samplings expressed in percentages). Only bootstrap values over 75% are shown. Bar indicates sequence divergence. The tree has been arbitrarily rooted. In parenthesis are shown the GenBank or Ribosomal Database Project II accession numbers.Back to article page
