Maximum Likelihood tree of Ehrlichia spp. constructed using partial sequences of 16S rDNA gene. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. The analysis involved 4 nucleotide sequences from this study and 10 others obtained from Genbank. The phylogeny shows the relatedness of E. minasensis isolated from this study marked with blue dot with other isolates from USA, Brazil and Australia and its relation to E. canis and E. ruminantium. Anaplasma phagocytophilum was used as the outgroup
