Figure 3

Network of haplotypes of locus pP42F (A) and pP89 (B) of Rhizoctonia solani AG-3 constructed using the statistical parsimony algorithm [59] implemented by TCS [61]. Geometric figures group haplotypes and the area of each figure represents the relative frequency of haplotypes in the population. Dots without denomination along the network indicate putative haplotypes not sampled from the population. Letters (a, b, c, d, and e) indicate probable homoplasy. The AG-3 TB haplotypes T025 and TBR24 were kept unconnected to the nested network because of the large mutational distance (a maximum of eight steps for pP42F and 14 for pP89) that separates them from the AG-3 PT haplotype by statistical parsimony analysis.
