Consensus tree derived from the Conservative matrix (284 positions) under MP criterion. Transversion/transition ratio was set to 1:3. Names of the taxa clustering within the Arsenophonus clade derived from Basic matrix are printed in colour: red for the long-branched taxa, dark orange for the short-branched taxa.
