Phylogenetic analysis of Rhipicephalus sanguineus specimens from Brazil. Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree of Rhipicephalus species using a concatenated sequence of 12S rDNA (238 bp) and COX1 (472 bp) sequences. Scale bar represents genetic distance. Numbers at the branches show bootstrap values (100 = 1,000). Genbank accession numbers are indicated on the left. The triangles represent sequences generated in this study. Other sequences are from Murrell et al. (2000), Dantas-Torres et al. (2013), Liu et al. (2013), and Burger et al. (2014).
