From: Draft genome sequence of type strain HBR26T and description of Rhizobium aethiopicum sp. nov.
Neighbor-Joining phylogenetic tree reconstructed based partial 16S rRNA gene sequences (801 bp), showing the relationships between Rhizobium aethiopicum sp. nov (bold and highlighted) and recognized species of the genus Rhizobium. The tree was computed using the Kimura 2-parameter model using MEGA version 7. The rate variation among sites was modeled with a gamma distribution (shape parameter = 4). Bootstrap values (1000 replicates) are shown at the branching points. Reference type strains are indicated with superscript ‘T’. Bar, % estimated substitutions. GenBank accession numbers of the sequences are indicated in parentheses next to strains codes. The accession numbers of whole genome sequenced strains are indicated with bold*. Abbreviations: B, Bradyrhizobium; R, Rhizobium; N, Neorhizobium; sp., species
