Figure 2

Microsatellite genotypes (MLGs) of Trypanosoma vivax . The T. vivax isolates included in this figure are representatives of all MLGs found in isolates from South American (SA) endemic (E) and non-endemic (NE) areas (16 SA isolates); plus 12 isolates from West Africa (WA) and two from East Africa (EA) (see details of isolates in Additional files 1 and 2). Samples were genotyped at 7 microsatellite loci (MST-4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15) using primers specific to T. vivax. Colours represent the alleles shared by isolates from different geographical regions.
