Figure 1

Phylogenetic tree inferred from partial gp45 nucleotide gene sequences (818–827 nt ) and showing the relationship between B. bigemina isolates investigated in this study (indicated in bold) and other B. bigemina strains published in GenBank (accession numbers in parentheses). The tree was constructed using the neighbour-joining algorithm of MEGA v4.1 software. The numbers at the nodes are bootstrap values expressed as percentages of 1000 replicates; only the values above 80% are shown. The bar (0.05) represents the number of mutations per site. Isolate designations: MP - Mpumalanga province, NW - North West province, WC - Western Cape province, and KZN - KwaZulu-Natal province.
