Abstract excerpt
The present study investigated the level of genetic variation among Schistosoma japonicum populations of different geographical origins from mainland China. Polymerase chain reaction-based methods were employed to determine the sequence for a subunit of the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase I gene for populations from Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei and Sichuan. No variation was detectable in the NADH...
