The maximum-parsimony phylogenetic tree derived from 16S rDNA sequences. The tree (based on 1000 bootstrap replications) was obtained using the Close-Neighbor-Interchange algorithm with search level 3 in which the initial trees were obtained with the random addition of sequences (10 replicates). All alignment gaps were treated as missing data. Escherichia coli was used as the outgroup.
