Fig. 4From: Genetic diversity of vector-borne pathogens in ixodid ticks infesting dogs from Pakistan with notes on Ehrlichia canis, Rickettsia raoultii and Dirofilaria immitis detectionPhylogenetic analysis of R. massiliae, Rickettsia raoultii and Rickettsia sp. isolated from ixodid ticks (this study: colored) with reference Rickettsia sp. isolates (NCBI GenBank) based on partial 16S rRNA gene sequences. The phylogram was constructed using the maximum likelihood algorithm based on the Kimura two-parameter model. The dataset was resampled 1000 times for bootstrap value generation. Anaplasma phagocytophilum (KJ782381) was used as the outgroupBack to article page
