FIG. 3.

Maximum-likelihood tree based on glnII gene sequence data (828 bp), showing the relationships of rhizobial isolates from New Zealand legume flora to type strains of rhizobia. The isolate names and the accession number in the ICMP culture collection are shown. The genus of the legume from which the bacteria were isolated is shown in parentheses. The letter following the parentheses indicates the genomic grouping as defined by the 16S rDNA data. The value of −lnL for this tree is 6,404.27.
