Molecular Identification and Polymorphism Determination of Cutaneous and Visceral Leishmaniasis Agents Isolated from Human and Animal Hosts in Iran

Figure 5

Phylogenic tree of the ITS1 region nucleotide sequences of Leishmania isolates recovered from humans and reservoir animals infected with cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis. The tree was constructed by using the maximum likelihood, Tamura 3-parameter model in MEGA software version 5. The numbers above the branches indicate the percentage of bootstrap. Branches without numbers have frequencies of less than 70%.
