Figure 6

Dendrogram of arsC gene. The 392 nucleotides of arsC (arenate reductase) were compared among C. botulinum strains and other clostridial species. Where multiple copies of the arsC were present within a strain, the copies are designated as C-1, C-2 or C-3 based upon their location within the operon shown in Figure 5. The dendrogram illustrates that the arsC copies within the same strain are different from each other and that the arsC sequences from Groups I, II and VI strains differ.
