Genetic recombination events between sympatric Clade A and Clade C lice in Africa.

Journal of medical entomology - 1 Sept 2013

Veracx Aurélie, Boutellis Amina, Raoult Didier

Abstract excerpt

Human head and body lice have been classified into three phylogenetic clades (Clades A, B, and C) based on mitochondrial DNA. Based on nuclear markers (the 18S rRNA gene and the PM2 spacer), two genotypes of Clade A head and body lice, including one that is specifically African (Clade A2), have been described. In this study, we sequenced the PM2 spacer of Clade C head lice from Ethiopia and compared these...
