FIG. 2 Phylogenetic position of Aeromonas isolates 1* and 3* according to gyrB sequences. Phylogenetic tree constructed with the neighbour-joining method using sequence data for reference strains of Aeromonas spp. derived from the studies of Yanez et al., 2003 [12] and Pidiyar et al., 2003 [13], in which the same primers were used. The bar shows 0.01 substitutions per nucleotide position.
