Phylogenetic tree of R.monacensis. Phylogenetic tree of R.monacensis based on (panel A): 381-bp the citrate synthase (glt A), (panel B) 533-bp the outer membrane protein A (omp A) gene, (panel C), 515-bp the outer membrane protein B (omp B) gene and (panel D) 438-bp 17 kDa protein gene. The tree was calculated by neighbor-joining method using MEGA 5.2 software. Values of the bootstrap support of the particular branching calculated for 10,000 replicates are indicated at the nodes. The variant sequences obtained in this study were designated by accession number and species and/or strain name.
