FIG 2.
Phylogenetic placement of strain FT118T within the class Alphaproteobacteria. (A) A 16S rRNA gene phylogeny reconstructed using nearly full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences of all type strains in Alphaproteobacteria (n = 1,567) and similar sequences identified in the Silva database (n = 3); scale bar, 0.2 nucleotide substitutions per position. (B) Genome-based phylogeny reconstructed using all type strains in Alphaproteobacteria (n = 1,621) and an additional 9 genomes identified from GenBank that fall into the same order with FT118T. A concatenated alignment of 120 conserved protein sequences from GTDB-Tk was used to obtain the phylogeny; scale bar, 0.3 nucleotide substitutions per position. For both trees, branches were collapsed to display the order level. Numbers in the parentheses represent the number of sequences included in each clade. Trees were rooted using Burkholderia cepacia ATCC 25416T. Bootstrap values lower than 50 are not shown.
