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).

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.
