Figure 2

Phylogenetic tree based on flaB nucleotide sequences. The tree was constructed by the neighbor-joining method in a pairwise deletion procedure. Distances were calculated according to the Jukes and Cantor method. Numbers at nodes correspond to the percentage confidence level in a bootstrap test performed on 1,000 replicates. The scale bar corresponds to a 0.01 distance. The GenBank accession numbers for nucleotide sequences of Borrelia persica flaB shown here are as follows: HumanBloodFL1 (DQ6736
