Fig. 2.

Plotted entropy shows the 4 major hypervariable regions along the 18S rRNA gene sequence. Two studied T.annulata sequences had 1413bp length. The plot shows the fragment of Theileria annulata have an enough length to cover the majority of hypervariable regions. The boxes are the hypervariable regions along the gene sequence and the arrows demonstrate the region was sequenced and applied for phylogenetic analysis
