Martínez, Hong You, Martin Lavin, Malcolm K. Jones, Mark A. Ragan, Jens Stoye, Ana Oleaga, Aidan M. Emery, Bonnie L. Webster, David Rollinson, Robin B. Gasser, Donald P. McManus, Lutz KrauseA maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree was inferred from concatenated protein sequences corresponding to 52 shared single-copy genes. Species divergence was estimated using a Bayesian relaxed molecular clock model. Divergence time is given in million years; 95% confidence intervals are shown in brackets. The divergence time between S. bovis and S. haematobium was estimated to be 1.85 million years (95% confidence interval 1.21–2.63 mya). The model was calibrated using previously published divergence times and ages of fossil records of intermediate snail hosts.
