Mycoplasma suis

<i>Mycoplasma suis</i>
Fig. 41:1. Phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, which illustrates the relations between members of the class Mollicutes. All taxa in the tree belong to the phylum Teniericutes except Bacillus cereus and Clostridium botulinum, which belong to the phylum Firmicutes and Escherichia coli, which belongs to the phylum Proteobacteria. The mycoplasmas of the mycoides group and the hemotropic mykoplasmas are indicated by vertical bars. Names of taxa in blue are included in VetBact and taxa in bold are included in this bacterial page.

The tree was generated on line by using the computer program "Tree Builder" at the website of RDP. E. coli was chosen as outgroup. (T) means type strain. Date: 2016-01-27.
