Fig. 3 Phylogenetic tree demonstrating the relative position of Leishmania strain 218-L139 based on partial maxicircle genome sequences. Phylogenetic tree demonstrating the relative position of Leishmania strain 218-L139 (brown star) based on alignment of partial maxicircle genome sequences. The alignment contains 9471 positions from 67 taxa. The tree was built using maximum likelihood (1000 bootstrap replicates) and the TVM + F + I + G4 model, and Bayesian inference using the GTR + I + G model where the proportion of invariable sites was set to 0.1. Posterior probability values and bootstrap support are reported for each node (pp/bs). The tree was rooted with the Strigomonas/Blechomonas/Herpetomonas clade. The relative position of each Leishmania subgenus is shown to the right of the corresponding clades (Leishmania, Sauroleishmania, Viannia, Mundinia). The scale bar represents the number of substitutions per site
