Neighbour-joining tree based on nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequences (1430 nt) showing relationships between the isolate N. valliformis and the type strains Nocardiopsis species. Asterisks indicate branches that were also found using the maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony tree-making algorithms. Numbers at the nodes are percentage bootstrap values based on 1000 re-sampled datasets. T type strain. Bar 0.005 substitutions per nucleotide position. The root position of the tree was determined using Streptomonospora nanhaiensis 12A09T as outgroup
