  • 2), and included all of the sequences shown in Figure 2except for the incomplete sequences from a spider ( C. salei run-2 ) and from the root-knot nematode ( M. hapla ). The consensus topology produced by each method was largely consistent with accepted phylogenies for all nodes with significant bootstrap values (Fig.

  • Two of these classes are bacterial (one typified by the arsC found in enteric bacteria such as E. coli ; the other typified by the arsC found in Staphylococcus plasmids and other Gram-positive Bacteria); the third is the Arr2 gene of S. cerevisiae . Phylogenies of these gene families based on 18 arsC sequences were recently reported [ 30 ] . However, as well as microorganisms that have been shown to have demonstrable arsenate resistance, whole genome analyses of various microorganisms have revealed an increasing number of open reading frames (ORFs) that have homology to arsC . Inclusion of these putative arsC genes in phylogenetic analyses might resolve the basic question: Did arsenate resistance systems evolve from a common origin or develop convergently in multiple taxa?

  • This is a good example of the difficulties encountered when using molecular phylogenies.

  • The arsC phylogenies obtained by evolutionary distance (ED) analysis (Figure 2) and maximum parsimony (MP; Figure 3) showed a number of broad similarities to the 16S rRNA tree.

  • Molecular phylogenies of universally conserved genes for better estimating distances
