Fig. 2From: Genome sequence of a native-feather degrading extremely thermophilic Eubacterium, Fervidobacterium islandicum AW-1Phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showing the relationship of F. islandicum AW-1 (in bold) to members of the family Thermotogaceae. The evolutionary history was inferred using the Neighbor-Joining method. The analysis involved 36 nucleotide sequences. All positions containing gaps and missing data were eliminated. There were a total of 1,235 positions in the final dataset. Bootstrap values (percentages of 1,000 replications) are shown next to the branches. The sequences used in the analysis were obtained from the GenBank database. Bar, 2Â nt substitution per 100Â nt. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA6Back to article page
