A Multiplex PCR Based on Mitochondrial COI Sequences for Identification of Members of the Anopheles barbirostris Complex (Diptera: Culicidae) in Thailand and Other Countries in the Region

Abstract excerpt

A multiplex-PCR assay based on mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences was developed for identification of five members of the Barbirostris Complex which occur in Thailand: Anopheles barbirostris s.s., An. dissidens, An. saeungae, An. wejchoochotei and An. barbirostris species A3. Anopheles campestris was not included in the assay due to the lack of unequivocal sequences. Allele-specific...
