Figure 3. Time-calibrated maximum clade credibility phylogeny based on the 6 kb mtDNA of Plasmodium species of human and non-human primates.

Figure 3

Phylogenetic tree scaled to time generated using uncorrelated relaxed clock model and Bayesian skyline coalescent tree prior, with the divergence of Plasmodium spp. of Asian macaques and P. gonderi/Plasmodium sp. (Mandrill) as the calibration point (black circle). TMRCAs and HPDs for P. knowlesi and Plasmodium of Asian macaques are indicated. Numbers on branches are values of posterior probabilities. The accession numbers of sequence data of P. knowlesi were deposited in GenBank under the accession numbers EU880446–EU880499 and accession numbers of the other sequences are provided in the Methods section.
