Figure 6.

Phylogenetic relationships of the Hsp70 proteins from S. singularior, O. pardalina and several other species. Accession numbers are given after species name. The evolutionary history was inferred using the neighbor-joining method. The percentage of replicate trees, in which the associated taxa clustered together in the bootstrap test (500 replicates), are shown next to the branches. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths in the same units as those of the evolutionary distances used to infer the phylogenetic tree. The evolutionary distances were computed using the Poisson correction method and are in the units of the number of amino acid substitutions per site. All positions containing gaps and missing data were eliminated from the dataset.
