Figure 3. Identification of Leishmania species isolated from a human and dogs.

Figure 3

(A) kDNA-PCR performed on DNA extracted from the bone marrow of a sick child and bone marrow cultures of five representative dogs. Lane 1, DNA size marker (100 bp ladder); lane 2, L. major (MHOM/IL/80/Friedlin); lane 3, L. infantum (MHOM/ES/00/UCM-1); lane 4, bone marrow, child, Tbilisi; lanes 5–9, bone marrow, dogs, Tbilisi; lane 10, negative control. (B) Phylogenetic analysis of Leishmania 70 kDa heat-shock protein (HSP70) genes. The sequences are represented by the Leishmania sp., country of origin in parentheses and GenBank nucleotide accession number. Node values indicate branch support.
