Taxonomic and Phylogenetic Relationships Between Neotropical Species of Ticks from Genus<i>Amblyomma</i>(Acari: Ixodidae) Inferred from Second Internal Transcribed Spacer Sequences of rDNA

2007-03-01

Abstract excerpt

The accurate specific identification of ticks is essential for the study, control and prevention of tick-borne diseases. Herein, we determined ribosomal nucleotide sequences of the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) of 15 Neotropical hard tick species of the genus Amblyomma Koch found in Brazil. Most of the studied ticks accidentally parasite humans and potentially act as vectors of zoonoses. Lengths of the...
