Phylogenetic Analysis of the Oriental-Palearctic-Afrotropical Members of Anopheles (Culicidae: Diptera) Based on Nuclear rDNA and Mitochondrial DNA Characteristics
1 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
The phylogenetic relationships of Anopheles spp. at the junction of Oriental, Palearctic, and Afrotropical regions in the Iranian plateau were investigated using molecular markers. A 711-bp mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase C subunit I (COI) fragment and the entire second internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) region (286-576 bp) of the nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA-ITS2) were sequenced from 14 and 28 taxa,...
