1D-PFGE <i>Not</i>I Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) analyses of <i>B. microti</i> R1 and Gray strains (left) and their corresponding Southern hybridizations (right) using a radiolabeled telomeric probe.

<p>PFGE conditions used are: 1% agarose gel in 1X TAE using a pulse condition of 1 min for 10h at 6 V/cm (10.5°C). Arrows indicate the location of the 8 telomeric regions in the <i>B. microti</i> genome. Fragments showing restriction polymorphism are indicated with white arrows and stars. *: Undigested genomic DNA. 1: Chromosome I, 2: Chromosome II, 3: Chromosome III, 4: Chromosome IV. a and b represented the two telomeric regions of each chromosome.
