Abstract excerpt
We investigated the utility of the ribosomal first internal transcribed spacer (ITS1) for phylogenetic studies on trematodes of the genus Paragonimus. Numerous clones containing ITS1 PCR products were sequenced for P. miyazakii, P. macrorchis, and members of the P. ohirai and P. westermani species complexes. Some additional data were obtained by direct sequencing of PCR products. The ITS1 is composed of three...
