Phylogenetic analysis of the Wolbachia-specific 16S rRNA conserved region. The sequences identified in this study in An. arabiensis in Tanzania (wAnga_TZ) (highlighted in red) clustered with Wolbachia strains from the supergroup A or B. Sequences from other wAnga from An. gambiae (s.l.) in Burkina Faso [11] (the asterisk indicates a sequence from Buck et al. [12]) and Mali [14] were also included. Other non-Wolbachia proteobacteria (R. japonica, E. chaffeensis and A. phagocytophilum) were also included, and the R. japonica sequence was used as the reference outgroup
