Phylogenetic reconstruction of C. trachomatis species. The tree was constructed using the whole genome of 53 strains encompassing the majority of the CT681/ompA serovars. The asterisks indicate the 17 strains representative of the major tree branches (in red) that were used to evaluate the relation between species polymorphism and the number of taxa (see the section Results for details).
