Bayesian inference (BI) and Neighbour-Joining (NJ) phylogenetic combined tree showing the relationships among Blastocystis-SSU rRNA gene sequences from this study (Bh) and published Blastocystis-subtypes ST1, ST2, ST3, ST4 (GenBank accession numbers indicated in the tree), carried out by using MrBayes3.1 and PAUP4 respectively, as above described. The number of sequences from each isolate (Bh) was reported in the brackets. Bootstrap values and posterior probabilities, respectively, are reported at the nodes; B. lapemi and B. pythoni (accession no. AY590115 and KU146575, respectively) were used as outgroups
