Maximum likelihood tree of A. cantonensis larvae recovered from infected Pomacea spp. snails using the
A) COI (460 bp) and B) ITS2 (304 bp) gene fragments. Both trees were generated using MEGA 11 using a GTR + Γ model. Both trees included other lung worm species (Angiostrongylus vasorum and Aelurostrongylus abstrusus) and were rooted using Caenorhabditis elegans. Numbers on branches indicate the bootstrap percentages for 1000 replicates (bootstrap values under 50% were not shown). The scale bar represents sequence divergence.
