Molecular phylogenetic analysis by maximum likelihood methods. a for 1f8 gene with HKY parameter and bootstrap value of 1000 replicates; b for GPI gene with T92 + G parameter and bootstrap value of 1000 replicates; and c for 18S rRNA K2 parameter and bootstrap value of 1000 replicates. The 1f8 and GPI DNA sequences clustered with DTU TcIV reference strains CANIII (A) and Ep272 (B), and 18S rDNA sequence clustered together with T. dionisii isolates. T. rangeli isolates RGB, PG and San Augustin were used as the outgroup, except for 1f8 gene, because no sequence is available on GenBank
