Aligned rrf-rrl spacer DNA sequences of B. burgdorferi sensu lato amplified directly from ticks or cultured strains or downloaded from GenBank. Gaps were introduced to obtain maximum homology. Only the last three bases of the 3′ end of the rrf gene and the first three bases of the 5′ end of the rrl gene are shown (in boldface).
