* Strains previously analysed by multilocus microsatellite typing (MLMT) using 21 microsatellite markers from Schwenkenbecher [3]a, their microsatellite cluster (I and II) , Subgroup (Subgp) as delineated here (Figure 2); b, kDNA PCR-RFLP; c, excreted factor (EF) serotype done according to Schnur and Zuckerman [15] ; d, MLEE done according to Rioux [18] and Pratlong [19] ), and of L. major MOHM/IL/1967/JerichoII (=LRC-L137) using 10 microsatellite markers and taken from Al Jawabreh [39]. The Israeli strains of L. tropica LRC-L725 and LRC-L758 were used as reference strains of L. tropica; nd, not done.
