Schematic representation of the maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree based on the 18S rRNA gene sequences of Babesia s.s. of a dog-infecting subclade. The final length of the alignment was 1750 bp and the tree was constructed using the evolution model TPM3+F+R2. Three sequences of B. caballi, the closest species, used as an outgroup are not displayed. The clade in a sister position to B. honkongensis is shown in detail. Sequences from this study are marked in red. The scale bars indicate the number of nucleotide substitutions per site. The bootstrap values (SH-aLRT/UFB) above the 80/95 threshold are displayed. Sequences are labelled by accession number, host and country of origin (if available)
