Fig 6. Coalescence gene genealogy of the Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii VNI isolates evidencing the presence of two main clusters that separated 0.29 to 2.8 million years ago.

Blue bars represent the 95% high posterior probability of the ages in the branches with a posterior probability limit of 0.5. The Bayesian posterior support values higher than 70% are described in the branches of the tree. One ST representing the VNB (ST7) and one representing the VNII (ST40) lineage were included in the analysis as out-groups. The continents of origin of the isolates are abbreviated as follows: AS: Asia, AF: Africa, EU: Europe, SA: South America, NA: North America.
