The Associations of Leishmania major and Leishmania tropica Aspects by Focusing Their Morphological and Molecular Features on Clinical Appearances in Khuzestan Province, Iran

Figure 6

The Phylogeny of Leishmania species according to the maximum-likelihood (ML), tree was conducted based on the multiple sequence alignment (haplotypes) of ITS-rDNA (a) and Cyt b (b) genes by MEGA5.05. Only bootstrap values of higher than 70% are indicated on each branch. Distance represents the number of base substitutions per site. Trypanosoma brucei (M94286; Cyt and JN673390; ITS-rDNA) is the outgroup branch. = Analyzed sequences in this study are shown in (a) and (b) for L. major and L. tropica complexes.
