Phylogenetic relationships of hookworms isolated from the giant panda with the related hookworms in the family Ancylostomatidae. Phylogeny was inferred on the basis of mitochondrial cox1 (a) and nuclear ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (b) sequences using both maximum parsimony (MP) and Bayesian inference (BI) methods. The livestock hookworm Bunostomum phlebotomum represented the outgroup species. Taxa belonging to the three major genera including Ancylostoma, Uncinaria and Necator in the family Ancylostomatidae are indicated by differently colored rectangles and shown in both phylogenetic topologies. The numbers along the branches indicate bootstrap values resulting from different analyses in the order MP/BI; values less than 50% are shown as “-”
