PhyML tree demonstrating the relationship between the DNA of chlamydial organisms isolated from the nasal cavities of live (CL, n = 17, in blue) and dead (CD, n = 15, in red) seal pups and three different associated substrates (tidal boulder beach [TBB, n = 3, in magenta], muddy grassy slope [MGS, n = 3, in green] and rocky stagnant pools [RSP, n = 1, in maroon]) on the Isle of May in Scotland, with known chlamydial species in the NCBI public database. Chlamydial Families are indicated to the right of the figure. Note there was no partitioning between live or dead seal with respect to the CLO species DNA recovered and all sediment samples contained Rhabdochlamydiaceae DNA which was present in nasal swabs from only six grey seal pups
