Use of a mouse model for the isolation of Borrelia puertoricensis from soft ticks

Fig 5

Phylogenomic analysis of B. puertoricensis CAU1.

The isolate is shown boxed with a red rectangle and additional Borrelia genomes were included (A). The tree was generated with an edge-linked proportional partition model with 1,000 ultra-fast bootstraps. Scale bar indicates 0.02 substitutions per site. The genome of CAU1 is shown in (B) and is composed of 16 linear plasmids (lp) and 5 circular plasmids (cp). The numbers indicate the approximate size in base pairs and the colored triangles show the plasmid maintenance genes. PF, plasmid family.
