Abstract excerpt

Strains of Naegleria fowleri isolated in Japan from two different places were found to differ in electrophoretic karyotype and restriction-fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) both from each other and from strains isolated on other continents. Using the Wagner parsimony method on the RFLP, we foun...
