Phylogenetic analysis of O. turicata subolesin with soft ticks, hard ticks and diptera subolesin amino acid sequences. Phylogenetic analysis was performed in DNASTAR by ClustalW slow/accurate alignment method using Gonnet as default value for protein weight matrix. Scale shows amino acid substitution per 100 residues. O. turicata subolesin sequence comes within the same clade with other soft and hard ticks. GenBank accession number for each sequences are mentioned in the Methods section.
