Figure 4:

Phylogenetic relationship between two Heterodera populations (SG936, SG153) with selected representative sequences from many of the world known Heterodera species as inferred from Bayesian analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence dataset. The newly obtained sequences were in bold. Posterior probability values more than 50% are given for appropriate clade.

Phylogenetic relationship between two Heterodera populations (SG936, SG153) with selected representative sequences from many of the world known Heterodera species as inferred from Bayesian analysis of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I of mitochondrial DNA sequence dataset. The newly obtained sequences were in bold. Posterior probability values more than 50% are given for appropriate clade.
