From: Characterisation and expression profile of the bovine cathelicidin gene repertoire in mammary tissue
Phylogram indicating evolutionary relationship between the bovine cathelicidin genes. Maximum likelihood phylogram based on an alignment of the nucleotide sequences of the exons from the 10 bovine cathelicidin genes which have all four exons. Sequences were obtained from the BosTau7 genome assembly using the UCSC genome browser. A Tamura 3-parameter model with a gamma distribution of substitution rates among sites was selected as being the most appropriate using jModelTest2. Numbers at the nodes are the results of 10,000 bootstrap replicates. Scale bar is number of substitutions per site.
