However, application of molecular genetic techniques, such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for gene amplification, and DNA sequencing, have revealed gross inconsistencies in the assignation of some parasite genetic variants, particularly those of the <jats:italic>B. gibsoni<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>B. microti<\/jats:italic> complexes, to the genus <jats:italic>Babesia<\/jats:italic>. These variants cannot be assigned, on the basis of sequence information and phylogenetic analysis, to either of the genera <jats:italic>Theileria<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Babesia<\/jats:italic>. The gene for which most sequence information is available for phylogenetic analysis is the small subunit ribosomal RNA (srRNA) gene. This gene allows clear distinction of the genera <jats:italic>Theileria<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Babesia<\/jats:italic> (<jats:italic>sensu stricto<\/jats:italic>) and reveals that many \u201c<jats:italic>Babesia<\/jats:italic>\u201d variants are phylogenetically distinct from both genera. This distinction is confirmed, for some of the variants, by \u03b2\u2010tubulin sequence data, suggesting that the organisms should be renamed and reclassified.<\/jats:bold> <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1196\/annals.1373.076","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,30]],"date-time":"2006-11-30T00:48:38Z","timestamp":1164847718000},"page":"509-517","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":82,"title":["Molecular Sequence Evidence for the Reclassification of Some <i>Babesia<\/i> Species"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"1081","author":[{"given":"MARIA T.
