Fig. 5From: 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 Rickettsia massiliae, R. raoultii, and Rickettsia sp. isolated from ixodid ticks (this study: colored) with reference Rickettsia sp. isolates (NCBI GenBank) based on partial gltA gene sequences. The phylogram was constructed using the maximum likelihood algorithm based on the Tamura three-parameter model. The dataset was resampled 1000 times for bootstrap value generation. Ehrlichia canis (AY647155) was used as the outgroupBack to article page
