Table 2. Polymorphic sites of AmpG sequences (364bp) observed in 154 Rhodnius prolixus and R. robustus I-IV.
The bold column highlights the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that separates R. prolixus from members of the R. robustus cryptic species complex (site 280).
Species | 74 | 80 | 167 | 174 | 270 | 280 | 321 | 337 | 341 | 360 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
R. prolixus | C | G | G | A | C | A | G | C | C | A |
R. robustus I | S | . | . | . | . | G | . | . | . | . |
R. robustus II | . | R | R | T | A | G | K | Y | S | T |

A dot (.) indicates identity with the consensus nucleotide (in this case, the consensus sequence is from R. prolixus).
Codes: A – adenine; C – cytosine; G – guanine; T – thymine; S – cytosine or guanine; R – guanine or adenine; K – guanine or thymine; Y – cytosine or thymine.
