Maximum likelihood molecular phylogenetic analysis of cowpea nodulating rhizobia from Ghana and South Africa with type Bradyrhizobium strains based on nodC gene sequences. The evolutionary history was inferred by using the Maximum Likelihood method based on the Kimura 2-parameter model50. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. The analysis involved 51 nucleotide sequences. Codon positions included were 1st + 2nd + 3rd + Noncoding. All positions containing gaps and missing data were eliminated. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA749.
