Identification of Mosquito Bloodmeal Source by Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Profile Analysis of the Cytochrome B Gene
1 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have shown that polymerase chain reaction (PCR) heteroduplex analysis (HDA) of the cytochrome B (cytb) gene is useful in identifying mosquito bloodmeals derived from avian hosts. However, interpretation of PCR-HDA gels is performed visually, which can make it difficult to analyze large numbers of specimens and to compare results between laboratories. We investigated the utility of a terminal...
