Phylogeny of the genus Shewanella. (A) Phylogenetic tree inferred using the 16S rRNA gene sequences of Shewanella species used for the comparative genomics and the closely related species retrieved from best BLAST hit (shown in Table 1). The sponge-specific cluster is shaded in green. Outgroup species are labeled in red. (B) Detailed view of the sponge-specific cluster. Strains in bold denote the only available genomes of sponge-associated Shewanella that are used in this study. The Shewanella sp. OPT22 sequenced in this study is highlighted by a single asterisk, grouped with other sponge-associated Shewanella strains. Shewanella sp. 3tb10 and Shewanella sp. 3tb16 were isolated from a coral host. Strains with two asterisks denote previously reported sponge-associated Shewanella. The complete phylogenetic tree is provided in Supplementary Figure S1.
