Fig. 3. Comparison of the sequence of outer primers (HaemNFI and HaemNR3) and inner primers (HaemF and HaemR2) from a frequently-used nested PCR protocol to detect avian Haemoproteus and Plasmodium based on the amplification of a 479 bp segment of the mitochondrial cytb gene (Hellgren et al., 2004) to the corresponding segments of the cyt-b gene of Haemoproteus pulcher obtained in this study (blue). Asterisks highlight mismatches between the sequences and the primers. (For interpretation of the references to colour in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the Web version of this article.)
