Genetic Evidence for a Potentially New Pathogenic Leptospira sp. Circulating in Bats from Brazilian Amazon

Figure 3

Maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree inferred from secY gene sequences, including the main pathogenic Leptospira species and sequences from this study (represented by the red branch). Numbers at nodes are bootstrap values greater than 50%. Regular font numbers correspond to ML analysis and italic numbers to NJ analysis. The size of the triangle reflects intraspecific diversity. Leptospira biflexa is the outgroup taxa.
