Phylogenetic tree of prolactin and placental-prolactin family of caprine and bovine. The tree was constructed using TreeView following the alignment of protein sequences given by the Clustal W 1.83 algorithm. The numbers at the base of each branch division represent bootstrap values after 1000 repeats. The scale bar represents 0.1 amino acid replacements per amino acid site.
