From: Complete genome sequence of Nocardiopsis dassonvillei type strain (IMRU 509T)
Phylogenetic tree highlighting the position of N. dassonvillei strain IMRU 509T relative to the type strains of the other species within the genus and to the type strains of the other genera within the family Nocardiopsaceae. The trees were inferred from 1,442 aligned characters [32,33] of the 16S rRNA gene sequence under the maximum likelihood criterion [34] and rooted in accordance with the current taxonomy [35]. The branches are scaled in terms of the expected number of substitutions per site. Numbers above branches are support values from 750 bootstrap replicates [36] if larger than 60%. Lineages with type strain genome sequencing projects registered in GOLD [37] are shown in blue, published genomes in bold [38]. Note that the tree is more in accordance with the view of Grund and Kroppenstedt (1990) [39] to treat N. alborubida as a species of its own, rather than with the view of Yassin et al. (1997) [25] and Evtushenko et al. 2000 [10] to regard it as a subspecies of N. dassonvillei based on a 71% DDH value [10].
