Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of H. zincidurans strain B6T relative to phylogenetically closely related type strains within the family Halomonadaceae. The sequences were aligned using Clustal W [26], and the neighbor-joining tree [27] was constructed based on kimura 2-parameter distance model [28] by using MEGA5 [29]. Bootstrap values above 60% are shown obtained from 1,000 bootstrap replications. Bar, 0.05 substitutions per nucleotide position. The corresponding GenBank accession numbers are displayed in parentheses.
