Bayesian tree obtained for the concatenated sequence of fusA, gltS, infB, lysS, rplB, rpoB, secY, serS and ychF genes. The abbreviations are: Cje (Corynebacterium jeikeium), Cdi (C. diphtheriae), Cgl1 (C. glutamicum ATCC 13032, NCBI accession No. NC_006958), Cgl2 (C. glutamicum ATCC 13032, NCBI accession No. NC_006958), Cef (C. efficiens), and Mbo (Mycobacterium bovis) as the outgroup. All branches are supported by posterior probability values of 100%. At least 80% of the trees for the commonly present single copy genes (534 genes in total) support branches 7 (with 82%) and 8 (with 86%), and trees for all genes support the remaining branches. Model I: Constant insertion/deletion rate on all branches. μ = μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 = μ5 = μ6 = μ7 = μ8. Model II: Branches separated into external and internal branches. External: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 = μ5 = μ6; Internal: μ7 = μ8 Model III: Different insertion/deletion rate on each branch.
