FIG. 1
Phylogenetic tree inferred from 16S rRNA sequences showing the phylogenetic placement of “Trichlorobacter thiogenes” strain K1. Phylogenetic relationships shown here were inferred by using neighbor joining and Kimura two-parameter genetic distances in TREECON (10). Bootstrap values above 60 are shown adjacent to branch nodes and were calculated from 100 resampled data sets using neighbor joining. The scale bar shows the number of expected nucleotide substitutions per site per unit of branch length. Operational taxonomic units shown on the tree were obtained from GenBank and the RDP databases. A similar tree topology was generated for trees constructed using maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony methods (data not shown).
