  Fig. 1 Phylogenetic tree based on 65-kDa heat shock protein gene sequences constructed by using the neighbor-joining method. Nucleotide sequences were used to align the reference panels provided by the National Center for Biotechnology Information Reference Sequence (RefSeq) database. This isolate was identified as Mycobacterium arupense.
