Molecular Phylogenetic Studies Of The Genus Brugia, Hong Xie, O. Bain, Steven A. Williams

Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

This paper is the first molecular phylogenetic study on Brugia para- sites (family Onchocercidae) which includes 6 of the 10 species of this genus : B. beaveri Ash et Little, 1 9 6 4 ; B. buckleyiDissanaike et Paramananthan, 1961 ; B. malayi (Brug,1927) Buckley, 1960 ; B. pohangi, (Buckley et Edeson, 1956) Buckley, 1960; B. patei (Buckley, Nelson etHeisch,1958) Buckley, 1960 and B. limori Partono et al., 1 9 7 7 . Hha I repeat sequences are 322 nucleotides long, highly repeated, tandemly arranged and unique to the nuclear genomes of the genus Brugia. Hha I repeat sequence data …
