Phylogenetic tree of 129 Trichomonas vaginalis isolates constructed on the basis of the presence or absence of 31 individual heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70) RFLP bands using the phylogeny inference package FreeTree.33 Numbers at the upper left of each node show the operational taxonomic unit jackknifing percent values based on 10,000 re-sampled datasets, which estimate statistical support for the existence of those branches. The sum of the horizontal branch lengths between individual Trichomonas isolates reflects the relative genetic distance separating the isolates.
