Abstract excerpt
Complete DNA sequences of the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSUrRNA) gene and partial sequences of three other loci were obtained from three variant-type and three classic-type Plasmodium ovale isolates from Southeast Asia and compared with GenBank-available data. Three different SSUrRNA sequences (Pov 1-3) were found in each variant-type isolate, and two different SSUrRNA sequences (Poc 1-2) in each classic-type...
