FIG. 2.

Strain relationships inferred from MLEE data (A) and the novel DNA sequence distribution data (B). The MLEE data were from Eardly et al. (13) and are used here for comparison. In both analyses, the neighbor-joining algorithm was used. For each strain, the following four pieces of information were presented: MLEE type, strain name, host species name (all belong to the genus Medicago), and geographic origin.
