Distinguishing species and populations of rhipicephaline ticks with its 2 ribosomal RNA.

The Journal of parasitology - 1 Oct 1998

Barker S C

Abstract excerpt

Most populations and some species of ticks of the genera Boophilus (5 spp.) and Rhipicephalus (ca. 75 spp.) cannot be distinguished phenotypically. Moreover, there is doubt about the validity of species in these genera. I studied the entire second internal transcribed spacer (ITS 2) rRNA of 16 populations of rhipicephaline ticks to address these problems: Boophilus microplus from Australia, Kenya, South Africa...
