FIG. 7.
Demonstration of a unique T. saginata sequence (fragment 5HDP2) and shared T. saginata and T. solium sequences (fragment IPHDP2 and 3PHDP2) within the T. saginata genomic sequence HDP2. Southern blotting was done with T. saginata (lanes 1) and T. solium (lanes 2) gDNAs (5 μg) cleaved with the ClaI restriction enzyme. The digested gDNAs were probed with three nonoverlapping fragments derived from the HDP2 sequence fragments: 5PHDP2 (A), IPHDP2 (B), and 3PHDP2 (C). The probes were labeled with digoxigenin.
