FIGURE 3.
Phylogenetic trees of the groEL gene fragments cloned by the primer pair Spa146f-Spa525r and Spa93f-Spa525r from the saliva of individual human subjects and those of known Streptococcus species. The sequences cloned with Spa146f-Spa525r are labeled with blue dots, and those cloned with Spa93f-Spa525r are labeled with orange dots. Bootstrap values greater than 50% are indicated at the nodes. (A) The tree of sequences cloned from the saliva of human subject SH3; (B) The tree of sequences cloned from the saliva of human subject SH8; (C) The tree of sequences cloned from the saliva of human subject SP13; (D) The tree of sequences cloned from the saliva of human subject SP24; (E) The tree of sequences cloned from the saliva of human subject SP15; (F) The tree of sequences cloned from the saliva of human subject SH10.
