Fig. 1 Dendrogram showing the phylogenetic organisation of the 61 R. conorii strains that were classified into 33 MST genotypes based on three intergenic spacers, constructed using the UPGMA method. Sequences from the three spacers were concatenated. *R. conorii strains detected in the skin biopsies of Algerian patients with MSF in this study.
