Maximum likelihood tree of Naegleria species. Based on maximum likelihood and bootstrapping using RAxML a species tree was constructed to achieve a comprehensive overview of the relatedness of the species within the genus of Naegleria. Phylogenetic distances were estimated based on 100 single copy orthologs defined by OrthoMCL clustering. Beside Naegleria species, the more distantly related protists T. brucei and T. cruzi were chosen as taxonomic outgroups
