Figure 1

The genealogical tree for 20 strains of Trichomonas vaginalis. The tree was constructed by Neighbor-joining method and rooted with representatives of other trichomonadid genera. The branch lengths reflect the genetic distances between the strains. The numbers show the bootstrap values (in percent) for every branch of the tree. The geographical origins and the values of minimal lethal concentration (MLC) for metronidazole (μg.ml-1) are listed for every strain. MLC values printed in red designate the strains, which were refractory to standard metronidazole treatment. The names of strains printed in blue designate strains infected with TVV. The apical branches printed in green designate strains infected with mycoplasmas.
