I have a 16S rRNA gene sequence of a bacteria. I wish to identify the organism with the help of phylogeny tree.

I tried different alignments such as CLUSTALW and MUSCLE for multiple sequence alignment and different methods of tree construction (Maximum Likelihood, Minimum Evolution, Neighbor Joining, UPGMA and Maximum Parsimony)

Each method of alignment with each method of tree gave a different type of tree.

I wish to know which method of alignment and which tree tree I should use for phylogeny tree construction and why.

Thanks in advance
