Isolation and characterization of secretions from the plant-parasitic nematode Globodera pallida.

abstract：:To test the homogeneity of 18S sequences within Trypanosoma cruzi, riboprint profiles were separated by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE). Upon interpretation of melting curves of fragments within a riboprint profile, there appeared to be two 18S sequence types within each stock examined. Two similar typ...
