Evolutionary analysis of the Trypanosomatidae family based on the CR of the maxicircle sequence. The evolutionary history was inferred using the maximum likelihood method and the Tamura–Nei model (Tamura and Nei 1993). The tree with the highest log likelihood (−166,927.58) is shown. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa are clustered together is shown next to the branches. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths representing the number of substitutions per site. This analysis involved 26 nucleotide sequences. Codon positions included were 1st + 2nd + 3rd + Noncoding. There was a total of 16,895 positions in the final dataset. All the evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA 11 [45].
