Phylogenetic tree based on a partial sequence of tapeworms obtained by the maximum likelihood method was conducted using the HKY + G + I nucleotide substitution model. Numbers above branches are percent bootstrap values based on 1,000 replicates. Bootstrap value >70% are shown.
(a) Phylogenetic tree based on the cox1 sequences of T. hydatigenaand Mesocestoides sp. isolates available in the GenBank® database were included. Hymenolepis nana served as an out-group.
(b) Phylogenetic analysis of the 12SrRNA partial sequence of T. hydatigena, Mesocestoides sp., and M. lineatus inferred using the sequence distance method and maximum likelihood. Hymenolepis nana was used as an out-group.
