Evolutionary history of mycoplasmas obtained through a phylogenomic approach. The Neighbor-Joining method using the p-distance to compute the evolutionary distances and the pairwise deletion of gaps was implemented in the MEGA 5 software program. The percentage of replicate trees in which the associated taxa clustered together in the bootstrap test (1,000 replicates) is shown next to each branch. Streptococcus pyogenes was used as the outgroup.
