The lengths of the ITS2 region of the three Culicoides species (C.arakawae, C.variipennis and C.imico la) ranged from 205 to 250 bp, while the ITS2 region of Aedes albopictus a nd Anopheles albimanus were 424 bp and 435 bp respectively. The G+C content of C.arakawae was the lowest (20 87%) among the species examined, while tha t of Aedes albopictus (56 35%) and Anopheles albimanus (56 13%) were t he highest. The composition of the ITS2 sequence was highly variable, and there we re no conserved regions with more than two bases in their sequences. The conserv ed loci appeared at positions 9, 113, 117, 134, 141, 164, 197, 212, 292 and 396 loci. After the ITS2 sequences of the three species of Culicoides were align ed, four conserved regions were observed. The highest genetic similarity existed bet ween C.arakawae and C.imicola (40 9%) and the least between C.arakawa e, Aedes albopictus and Anopheles albimanus (7 7%). Since the ITS2 provid es enough genetic markers it could be used as a target region to set up diagnost ic PCR assay for Culicoides .展开更多
