Phylogenetic tree based on predominant 16S rRNA gene sequences obtained by C4–V8 Sutterella PCR from AUT-GI patients, Sutterella species isolates, and related species. The tree was constructed by the neighbor-joining method. Bootstrap values (>60%) based on 1,000 replicates are shown next to the branches. There were a total of 653 positions in the final data set. The evolutionary distances were computed using the Jukes-Cantor method and are in units representing the number of base substitutions per site. The optimal tree with the sum of branch length of 0.66371685 is shown. The tree is rooted to the outgroup Escherichia coli. Accession numbers are shown in parentheses. AUT-GI patient sequences are boxed in red.
