Phylogeny of T. vivax cathepsin L (CATL) gene sequences of wandering donkeys from the Brazilian Semiarid. CATL sequences amplified using TviCATL-PCR from blood samples of donkeys (TviBrDo) were aligned to sequences from isolates of sick dairy cattle (TviBrMo and TviBrCa) and sheep (TviBrRp) outbreaks of the Semiarid; sequences of T. vivax infecting livestock in endemic South American and African countries were included in the alignment. Numbers at the nodes are bootstrap support values from 500 replicates.*http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Projects/T_vivax/. Codes within parentheses are GenBank accession numbers
