Phylogenetic tree based on aligned sequences of 18S rRNA gene of Babesia spp. with Toxoplasma gondii as outgroup and constructed by using Maximum Likelihood method calculated under the GTR+I+G substitution model in MEGA5.1 software.
The babesial sequences obtained in this study are shown in a bold font. GenBank accession numbers of sequences and names of lineages are given before species names.
