Phylogenetic tree of Plasmodium spp. based on complete mitochondrial genomes. Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood methods yielded identical topologies; only the Bayesian tree obtained using MrBayes v3.1.2 is shown. The alignment included approximately 5800 bp of the parasites’ mitochondrial genomes (mtDNA). The values above branches are posterior probabilities. The phylogeny branches leading to human malaria parasites are colored in red
