We extrapolated the evolutionary relationships between the species using 1) Feature Frequency Profile comparisons, 2) 16S rRNA alignments, and 3) Mauve genome alignment, but each method yielded an alternative result.

<br>By sequencing more species in this family, we hypothesize that Inclusion of a larger set of sequenced species in the genera may elucidate new and more reliable information about their origins and cladistics.

Extrapolation of evolutionary relationships between the species using sequence frequency comparisons, 16S rRNA alignments, and genome structural comparisons have all yielded different results. Inclusion of a larger set of sequenced species in the genera may elucidate new information about their origins and unique sequence elements between clusters.
