FIG. 1.
Unrooted tree showing the phylogenetic relationships of C. riegelii sp. nov. and other members of the genus Corynebacterium. The tree, constructed by using the neighbor-joining method, was based on a comparison of approximately 1,320 nucleotides. Bootstrap values, expressed as percentages of 500 replications, are given at the branch points. EMBL sequence accession numbers are given in parentheses.
