FIG. 4 Phylogenetic tree based on flaB nucleotide sequences. The tree was constructed using the neighbour-joining method with a pairwise deletion procedure. Distances were calculated according to Jukes and Cantor. Numbers at nodes correspond to the percentage confidence level in a bootstrap test performed on 1000 replicates. The scale bar corresponds to a distance of 0.01. The GenBank accession numbers for nucleotide sequences of Borrelia persica flaB shown here are as follows: Human Blood FL1, DQ673617; Human Blood C1015B, DQ679904; Ornithodoros tholozani CBkc7, DQ679905; Human Blood 1, DQ679906; Human Blood 2, DQ679907; Human Blood 3, DQ679908; Human Blood 4, DQ679909; O. tholozani TG52, DQ679910; and O. tholozani TGd1, DQ679911.
