Fig. 2From: Molecular identification of Plasmodium spp. and blood meal sources of anophelines in environmental reserves on São Luís Island, state of Maranhão, BrazilPhylogenetic relationships within the genus Plasmodium based on a 240 bp fragment of the 18S RNA gene. The phylogenetic tree was inferred using the maximum likelihood method and the GTR + G model. The sequences detected in the present study are highlighted in bold. Node numbers correspond to bootstrap values higher than 50% that were accessed with 1,000 pseudoreplicates. Toxoplasma gondii was used as the outgroupBack to article page
