From: Delimitation of five astome ciliate species isolated from the digestive tube of three ecologically different groups of lumbricid earthworms, using the internal transcribed spacer region and the hypervariable D1/D2 region of the 28S rRNA gene

Fig. 2

Phylogenetic tree based on the nuclear 18S rRNA gene and the ITS1–5.8S-ITS2 region, showing the phylogenetic positions of astome ciliates isolated from lumbricid earthworms. The tree was rooted according Obert and Vďačný [12]. Posterior probabilities for Bayesian Inference conducted in Phycas were mapped onto the 50%-majority rule consensus tree. Sequences in bold face were obtained during this study. For specimen codes and further details, see Table 1. The scale bar denotes two substitutions per one hundred nucleotide positions
