Figure 1 Phylogenetic tree using a bootstrap analysis for the Rickettsia species in Culex pipiens from China. The nearest GenBank sequences (shown at the end of the sequence name) were aligned using the multi-sequence alignment program. The evolutionary tree was constructed using parsimony and maximum-likelihood methods. The Rickettsia sp. found in this study (underlined) was identical to the sequence we studied before, and was closest to the new Rickettsia species in An. gambiae and An. melas from Africa.
