The second internal transcribed spacer of nuclear ribosomal DNA as a tool for Latin American anopheline taxonomy - a critical review.

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz - 1 Dec 2006

Marrelli Mauro Toledo, Sallum Maria Anice Mureb, Marinotti Osvaldo

Abstract excerpt

Among the molecular markers commonly used for mosquito taxonomy, the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) of the ribosomal DNA is useful for distinguishing among closely-related species. Here we review 178 GenBank accession numbers matching ITS2 sequences of Latin American anophelines. Among those, we found 105 unique sequences corresponding to 35 species. Overall the ITS2 sequences distinguish anopheline...
