Phylogenetic analysis highlighting the relation of Sedimenticola selenatireducens strain AK4OH1T genes to known DMSO reductases by Maximum Likelihood method. The evolutionary history was inferred by using the Maximum Likelihood method based on the JTT matrix-based model [37]. The tree with the highest log likelihood (-17325.9218) is shown. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. Initial tree(s) for the heuristic search were obtained by applying the Neighbor-Joining method to a matrix of pairwise distances estimated using a JTT model. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. The analysis involved 13 amino acid sequences. All positions containing gaps and missing data were eliminated. There were a total of 724 positions in the final dataset. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA6 [30]. GenBank accession numbers are listed in parentheses. Bar = 0.5 substitutions per nucleotide position
