FIG 3.

Neighbor-joining tree based on Cox1 sequences, showing the phylogenetic relationships between the Taenia martis isolate from humans and the other tapeworm species. The black triangle refers to the sequence generated by this study, and the GenBank accession numbers of each strain are given in parentheses. The letters a to d in parentheses refer to Taenia martis isolated from humans (a), Myodes glareolus (b), Apodemus sylvaticus (c), and Myodes rufocanus (d), respectively. Bootstrap values of >70% are included to indicate branch support. Neighbor-joining analysis was processed using MEGA V.5.2. software, and the branch support was evaluated by means of a bootstrap test with 1,000 replicates (14).
