Figure 5.

LRV1 relationships for 2 sympatric populations of Leishmania braziliensis in Peru and Bolivia. The figure associates the LRV1 sequence relationships depicted in Figure 4 with the geographical relationships shown in Figure 1. The fine distribution of LRV1 genotypes is shown in the insets for the district of Pilcopata at Paucartambo, Cusco, Peru; Isiboro Sécure National Park; and the municipality of Shinahota at Cochabamba, Bolivia. From this and the data in Figure 1, it can be seen that both LRV1-positive and LRV1-negative lines occur within both populations (insets), including LRV1s whose sequences differ considerably.
