The Genome Sequence of Methanohalophilus mahii SLPT Reveals Differences in the Energy Metabolism among Members of the Methanosarcinaceae Inhabiting Freshwater and Saline Environments

Figure 3

Maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree inferred from the 2344-gene supermatrix. The branches are scaled in terms of the expected number of substitutions per site. Numbers above branches are support values from ML (left) and maximum parsimony (MP; right) bootstrapping. The tree was rooted with the Haloterrigena turkmenica genome [19] included in the sample. The topology of the single best MP tree was identical to the one depicted here except for the unsupported branch connecting Methanosphaerula palustris and Methanospirillum hungatei.
