Statistical parsimony network of Eimeria spp. haplotypes for COI sequences. Network based on a 459 bp region of the gene coding for the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase from Eimeria isolates detected in rodents (Mus musculus, Apodemus flavicollis, A. sylvaticus, A. agrarius) caught in Europe. Previously published sequences from different species of Eimeria infecting cricetid and murid rodents were also included. Coloring of each haplotype is based on the host species from the Eimeria isolate. Every haplotype is marked with a consecutive number and its size indicates the number of sequences included on it. Each node represents a mutational step between two haplotypes
