Rh. Boehmer et al., GENETIC-VARIABILITY OF BORRELIA-BURGDORFERI SENSU-LATO STRAINS DEMONSTRATED BY RESTRICTION-FRAGMENT-LENGTH-POLYMORPHISM AND PROBE HYBRIDIZATION, Medical microbiology letters, 4(4), 1995, pp. 180-188
Patient and tick isolates of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu late mainly fr
om Bavaria, Germany were analyzed by restriction fragment length polym
orphism. Three major RFLP groups were recognised according to their DN
A hybridisation patterns with different hybridisation probes. These co
rrelate with the three European species found in the region.
