Phylogenetic placement of the acI-B1 AAA027-L06 SAG within the acI lineage and relative to other sequenced actinobacterial genomes. Phylogenetic reconstruction was conducted by maximum likelihood (RAxML) (Stamatakis et al., 2008) with 1000 bootstrap runs on the CIPRES web portal (http://www.phylo.org) using near-full-length reference 16S rRNA gene sequences from a manually curated alignment (Newton et al., 2011) and a 50% base frequency filter (total 1402 positions). Bootstrap values are indicated above nodes with greater than 50% support and the scale bar represents 10 base substitutions per 100 nucleotide positions.
