Phylogenetic analysis showed the affiliation of isolates in this study. The phylogenetic tree was based on 16S rRNA gene sequences of selected Nitrospira. The tree was constructed using the neighbor-joining algorithm. Numbers at branch nodes are bootstrap values. Previously defined sublineages (6) of the genus Nitrospira (Roman numbers) are shown. Clones obtained previously from soils and activated sludge are classified into separate clusters. Scale bar corresponds to 1% estimated sequence divergence.
