Phylogenetic tree showing the position of the GV69 strain relative to other type strains within the Staphylococcaceae family. The strains and their corresponding GenBank accession numbers (in parentheses) for the 16S rRNA genes are as follows: S. aureus strain ATCC 12600 (L36472), S. saprophyticus strain ATCC 15305 (AP008934), S. epidermidis strain ATCC 14990 (D83363), strain DSM 20328 (X66101), S. haemolyticus strain CCM2737 (X66100), S. cohnii strain ATCC 49330 (AB009936), with (X84731) as an outgroup. To construct the tree, the sequences were aligned with the RDP aligner using the Jukes-Cantor corrected-distance model for assembling a distance matrix based on the alignment model positions without the use of alignment inserts and with a minimum comparable position of 200. The tree was built with RDP Tree Builder, which uses Weighbor with an alphabet size of 4 and size length of 1000 [31]. The bootstrapping process was repeated 100 times to generate a strict consensus tree [32]
