16S rRNA phylogenetic tree.

<p>Neighbor-Joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene constructed using the partial nucleotide sequence from the 11 <i>P. stutzeri</i> isolates and related sequences obtained from NCBI <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0105837#pone.0105837-Anzai1" target="_blank">[40]</a>. Numbers shown at nodes indicate bootstrap values (percentage of 1000 replicates). The trees were constructed by the neighbour-joining method using MEGA v.5. Reference strains are highlighted in bold. The bar scale indicates the rates of substitution per nucleotide position. Sequence accession numbers are given in parentheses. ^T = type strain.
