Chapter 21, Problem 2Q
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason, due to which some individuals, within the tree, are inconsistent, being the infection source within the cluster.
Given:
All the individuals are marked CC01-CC08 and are known to have engaged in sex. These represent an epidemiological cluster:
Figure: An epidemiological cluster.
Introduction:
A phylogenetic tree is used to show to the history of the evolution of species, genes, and populations. It is based on the biochemical attributes, physical structures, and behavior of the genes. These days, the genomes of many organisms are available, so the biologists are able to construct the detailed phylogenetic trees.

It's a devastating disease being avoided by mango farmers. For example, in the island province of Guimaras, Philippines, one cannot bring mango into the island to avoid contamination of the mango plantations. Guimaras produces the sweetest mango in the world. One challenge in the control of mango anthracnose is that C. gloeosporioides is a species complex.
