Consensus tree from the Bayesian analysis of 18S rRNA gene sequences of all complete 18S rRNA gene sequences from the monophyletic group described in Figure1, with Theileria sequences as the outgroup. The GenBank accession numbers for the retrieved sequences are indicated on the tree. Sequences were aligned and gaps were removed manually. The Bayesian analysis was conducted in MrBayes v3.2.2 [22],[23], and the posterior probabilities are indicated on the nodes. The red deer sequence group is indicated with a bracket, and the closely related sequence of Babesia sp. Xinjiang with a star. Long branches have been shortened for presentation purposes and are indicated with //.
