Phylogenetic trees based on mamA, mamB, mamK, mamM, mamO, mamP, mamQ, and mamT gene sequences (see Table 4 for lengths of the sequences) from the newly isolated MTB and other characterized MTB. Bootstrap values (>50) at nodes are percentages of 100 replicates. Magnetosome gene sequences from “Candidatus Magnetobacterium bavaricum” were used as an outgroup when its appropriate mam gene sequence was available; if not available, those from “Candidatus Magnetoglobus multicellularis” were used.
