Bayesian phylogenetic tree of 149 closely related TcTS. In order to construct a phylogenetic tree from high quality alignment, sequences from 149 TcTS genes with high pairwise identity were selected. Sequences were aligned using MUSCLE algorithm, and the tree was constructed by MrBayes v3.2.1. Posterior probability values are indicated on tree nodes. Low treeness (=0.363; calculated by dividing the cumulative internal branch length by the total length of the tree) provides support for recombination among TcTS gene family members
