Fig. 4: The VF20HR isolate is a member of the Bisgaard Taxon 45 (BGT45) family.
From: Pasteurella sp. associated with fatal septicaemia in six African elephants

The phylogenetic relationship of VF20HR with other members of the Pasteurellaceae family was analysed using (a) 16 S rDNA sequences (1177 nucleotides); (b) core genome multilocus sequence typing (MLST) based on 681 markers; (c) partial rpoB gene sequences (467 nucleotides) and (d) partial infB gene sequences (455 nucleotides). For the 16 S rDNA, rpoB and infB trees, the Genbank accession numbers for the sequences from Bisgaard Taxon 45 (BGT45), Bisgaard Taxon 46 (BGT46), Pastereulla multocida subspecies (Pm) and Pasteurella canis are provided in the tree. The support for monophyletic groups by bootstrap analysis is indicated as percentages. Samples are color-coded, with dark blue (VF20HR), red (Bisgaard Taxon 45), green (Bisgaard Taxon 46), light blue (P. multocida subspecies) and purple (P. canis).
