FIG 2.
Rooted neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree (Felsenstein correction) based on almost-full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences showing the investigated strains of Acidobacteria SD 4 (boldface) in relation to other described acidobacterial taxa. Open and closed circles indicate bootstrap values (expressed as percentages of 1,000 replicates) of >70% and >90%, respectively. The following sequences were used as the outgroup: Planctomyces brasiliensis DSM5305T (AJ231190), Planctomyces maris DSM8797T (AJ231184), and Planctomyces limnophilus DSM 3776T (CP001744). The bar indicates 10% nucleotide divergence.
