Figure 1

Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of Alistipes senegalensis strain JC50T relative to other type strains within the Alistipes genus. GenBank accession numbers are indicated in parentheses. The tree was inferred from the comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequence. Sequences were aligned using CLUSTALW, and phylogenetic inferences obtained using the maximum-likelihood method within the MEGA software. Numbers at the nodes are bootstrap values obtained by repeating 500 times the analysis to generate a majority consensus tree. Bacteroides splanchnicus was used as an outgroup. The scale bar represents a 2% nucleotide sequence divergence.
