Phylogenetic relationship between type strains of the family Brucellaceae (n = 43) and field strains (n = 50), based on multi-locus sequence analysis. Type strains are denoted by a black diamond (◆), whilst strains from Bundeswehr Institute of Microbiology, Germany are denoted (D) and field strains from the Animal and Plant Health Agency, United Kingdom are denoted (UK). The evolutionary history was inferred using the maximum likelihood method, based on the general time reversible model. Node labels give percentage bootstrap support. The scale bar shows the number of base substitutions per site. Rhizobium etli (CFN42T) was used to root the phylogenetic tree.
