Fig. 9From: Detection and genetic characterization of a wide range of infectious agents in Ixodes pavlovskyi ticks in Western Siberia, RussiaThe phylogenetic tree constructed by the ML method based on nucleotide sequences of 1160–1200 bp fragment of the 18S rRNA gene of Babesia spp. The scale-bar indicates an evolutionary distance of 0.01 nucleotides per position in the sequence. Significant bootstrap values (>75%) are shown on the nodes. The sequences of prototype strains of Babesia spp. from GenBank database are in boldface.
