Phylogenetic tree of <i>Aeromonas</i> isolates recovered from diarrhea patients.

<p>The tree shows the relationships based on partial sequences of <i>rpoD</i> gene of type strains of <i>Aeromonas</i> species and the isolates from the current study. The sequence alignments were performed using the CLUSTAL W program, and the tree was generated using the neighbor–joining method with Kimura 2 parameter distances in MEGA 4.1 software. Bootstrap values (from 1,000 replicates) greater than 50% are shown at the branch points. The bar indicates 2% sequence divergence.
