From: Draft genome sequence and characterization of Desulfitobacterium hafniense PCE-S
Phylogenetic tree of Desulfitobacterium spp. 16S rRNA gene sequences were derived from NCBI Genbank. The following 16S rRNA genes were chosen if a complete genome sequence was available: Bacillus subtilis: BSU_rRNA_4, Geobacter lovleyi: Glov_R0005, Desulfosporosinus orientis: Desor_0097, D. dehalogenans: Desde_0132; D. dichloroeliminans: Desdi_0096, D. metallireducens: DESME_00460; D. hafniense Y51: DSY_16SrRNA1; D. hafniense DCB-2: Dhaf_R0006; Dehalobacter restrictus: DEHRE_01135. D. hafniense PCE-S 16S rRNA gene sequence: was corrected with the help of the draft genome sequence. The tree was generated with MEGA 6.0 [7] using the maximum likelihood algorithm with 500 bootstraps and standard settings. Sequences were trimmed to the size of the shortest available sequence and aligned with Muscle. Bootstrap values of lower than 70% are considered as low and thus the two nodes with low bootstrap values in the Desulfitobacterium clade have to be considered with care.
