Mitochondrial DNA characterization of populations of<i>Lutzomyia whitmani</i>(Diptera: Psychodidae) incriminated in the peri-domestic and silvatic transmission of<i>Leishmania</i>species in Brazil

1997-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Abstract A comparative analysis was performed on 18 mitochondrial DNA sequences, or haplotypes, of Lutzomyia (Nyssomyia) whitmani (Antunes &amp; Coutinho) isolated by PCR from 28 individual flies originating from 10 Brazilian locations 150–2500 km apart. A phylogenetic analysis using maximum parsimony indicated support for three to four major lineages (Outgroups were haplotypes of Lutzomyia (Nyssomyia) intermedia...
