Cladogram using Leucocytozoon cyt b sequences (617 bp). A) Tree showing samples that do not fall in the novel crane Haemosporida clade. B) Tree showing samples that are included in the novel clade. The tree was created using the maximum-likelihood method with a GTR + G model of evolution. Bootstrap values are based on 1000 replicates, and nodes with <50% support are collapsed. Leucocytozoon A and B are positive control samples. Sequences in bold were generated in this study, and Leucocytozoon sequences are underlined. W – AWBP whooping crane, STP – sandhill crane harvested in the Texas, SGC – sandhill crane harvested on the Texas Gulf Coast, SNM – sandhill crane harvested in New Mexico.
