Rickettsia phylogenetic tree constructed using maximum-likelihood (ML) estimations based on gltA nucleotide sequences (589 unambiguously aligned bp; best-fit approximation for the evolutionary model: T92 + G), including representative Rickettsia species (their GenBank accession numbers are indicated on the tree). Branch numbers indicate percentage bootstrap support (1000 replicates). Only bootstrap supports > 70% are shown. The scale bar is in units of substitution/site. Black squares indicate Rickettsia sequences obtained in this study
