Phylogenetic relationships of the four species of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto group. The phylogenetic tree was constructed with the number of nucleotide substitutions, estimated by Kimura's two-parameter method, of concatenated nucleotide sequences of 2,610 orthologous genes (3,776,106 sites) by the neighbor-joining (NJ) method [22]. The names of branches defined in this study are shown above each branch. The number below the interior branch represents the bootstrap value (1000 replicates).
