Phylogenetic relationships of Mycoplasma ovis and ‘Candidatus M. haemovis’ genotypes identified here and other hemotropic mycoplasmas. Phylogeny was inferred with a neighbor-joining analysis of the nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequences based on distances calculated with the Kimura 2-parameter model. Mycoplasma pneumoniae was used as an outgroup. Bootstrap values >50% from 1000 replicates are shown on the nodes. The genotypes detected in this study are shown as triangles
