Molecular systematics of dictyostelids: 5.8S ribosomal DNA and internal transcribed spacer region analyses.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The variability and adaptability of the amoebae from the class Dictyosteliomycetes greatly complicate their systematics. The nucleotide sequences of the ribosomal internal transcribed spacers and the 5.8S ribosomal DNA gene have been determined for 28 isolates, and their utility to discriminate between different species and genera has been shown.

Distribution, Fauna and Seasonal Variation of Sandflies, Simultaneous Detection of Nuclear Internal Transcribed Spacer Ribosomal DNA Gene of Leishmania major in Rhombomys opimus and Phlebotomus papatasi, in Natanz District in Central Part of Iran
Background: Zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL) due to Leishmania major is increasing in many parts of Iran. This disease originally is a disease found in gerbils. Leishmania parasites are transmitted by sandflies that live and breed in gerbil burrows. Nested PCR amplified Leishmania ITS1-5.8S rRNA gene in both main reservoir host “Rhombomys opimus” and in the “Phlebotomus papatasi” main vec...
متن کاملA new concept for Dictyostelium sphaerocephalum based on morphology and phylogenetic analysis of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region sequences
Three dictyostelid isolates were found in Spain and Argentina that are morphologically different from known species. These isolates have some features similar to Dictyostelium sphaerocephalum (Oudem.) Sacc., Marchal & É.J. Marchal, but differ in size and sorocarp branching pattern. We sequenced the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region to explore phylogenetic relationships among ...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Complete Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Sequences of Paramphistomum cervi
Sequences of the complete nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) gene from five individual Paramphistomum cervi were determined for the first time. The five complete rDNA sequences, which included the 18S rDNA, the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1), the 5.8S rDNA, the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2), the 28S rDNA, and the intergenic spacer (IGS) regions, had a length range of 8,493-10,221 bp. The...
متن کاملGenetic diversity and molecular evolution of Naga King Chili inferred from internal transcribed spacer sequence of nuclear ribosomal DNA.
Sequences of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of nuclear ribosomal DNAs were explored to study the genetic diversity and molecular evolution of Naga King Chili. Our study indicated the occurrence of nucleotide polymorphism and haplotypic diversity in the ITS regions. The present study demonstrated that the variability of ITS1 with respect to nucleotide diversity and sequence pol...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence through the 18S-28S intergene region of a vertebrate ribosomal transcription unit.
We have determined the nucleotide sequence of part of a cloned ribosomal transcription unit from Xenopus laevis extending from the 3' region of the 18S gene through the 18S-28S intergene region into the start of the 28S gene. The 18S 3' region possess two tracts of high homology with the corresponding segments of other eukaryotic 18S genes (yeast and Bombyx mori) separated by a tract of low hom...
