Abstract excerpt
To increase the existent genetic variability in cysteine proteases, a polymorphism study was performed in Haemonchus contortus by comparing 2 different strains of the parasite: North American (NA) and Spanish (SP) strains. For this purpose, the polymorphism of 5 previously reported genes (AC-1, AC-3, AC-4, AC-5 and GCP-7) were analysed by PCR-SSCP and sequencing procedures. Based on the SSCP results, a total of...
