Neighbour joining phylogenetic tree. Phylogenetic tree comparing the A-type SSU rRNA gene sequence obtained (GenBank accession number JQ794445) with other Plasmodium species identified in our laboratory as well, but not submitted to the GenBank (identified as “ML plus an internal number” given in our Malaria Laboratory followed of the country name in the cases where this is known) and with known Plasmodium A-type SSU rRNA sequences from GenBank (accession numbers are indicated in parenthesis). The sequence of our patient clusters with all other P. cynomolgi strains. Sequence Theileria (AF162432) was used as outgroup. Significative bootstrap values are indicated.
