Abstract excerpt
Eighty-seven isolates of amebae assigned to the genus Entamoeba have been studied by riboprinting (restriction enzyme polymorphism analysis of polymerase chain reaction amplified small subunit ribosomal RNA genes). Twenty-four distinct patterns were obtained, most of which corresponded to previously described species. In three species (Entamoeba coli, Entamoeba gingivalis and Entamoeba moshkovskii) intraspecific...
