Figure 4

Phylogenetic tree of the ITS-1 sequence of isolated trypanosome (strain TrPhp1) and homologue sequences deposed in GenBank (GB numbers reported near the taxon name). Source and countries of isolation of the strains are reported near the square brackets. The tree was reconstructed using the Bayesian method. Only posterior probabilities over 0.8 are shown at the node. Scale bar in units of substitutions per site. TthI clade in blue, TthII clade in red, sequence of isolated trypanosome with red background. Identical sequences available in GenBank: HQ664829 TthcV2-7; HQ664847 Treu124-2; HQ664848 Treu124-3; JN798602 TC3; JN798603 TC4; JN798604 TC9; JN798605, TC10; JN798606, TC339; JN798607, TC603.
