Molecular Phylogenetic analysis of fungal annexins by Maximum Likelihood method. The evolutionary history was inferred by using the maximum likelihood method based on the JTT matrix-based model. The tree with the highest log likelihood (−7071.5193) is shown. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. Initial tree(s) for the heuristic search were obtained automatically as follows. A discrete Gamma distribution was used to model evolutionary rate differences among sites [five categories (+G, parameter = 1.2474)]. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. The analysis involved 18 amino acid sequences. All ambiguous positions were removed for each sequence pair. There were a total of 430 positions in the final dataset. Human and mouse annexins have been included as an outgroup. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA5 (Tamura et al. 2011)
