Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree of Theileria orientalis MPSP gene sequences with Babesia bigemina (M85187.1) as the outgroup.
Sequences from this study are marked with triangles (▲ black = Genotype 7; ▲ red = Genotype 5). Labels include accession numbers (in parentheses), host, country and the numbers along with branches indicate the bootstrap values.

Estimation of codon-based evolutionary divergence between MPSP sequences.
Table 7.
List of Theileria orientalis haplotypes identified based on MPSP gene sequences in cattle from eight divisions of Bangladesh. The table includes haplotype number, number of sequences, genotypes, geographic location and their corresponding GenBank accession numbers.
Fig 3.
Median Joining Network indicates haplotype relationships and genetic diversity of T. orientalis based on MPSP gene sequences.
The figure depicts a constructed Median Joining Network based on haplotype analysis of the MPSP gene sequences. Each circle represents a haplotype, with the size proportional to the number of samples sharing that haplotype. The colors indicate different haplotypes, highlighting genetic differentiation among groups. The hatch marks on the connecting lines between haplotypes represent the mutational steps separating them.
