Real-time PCR for simultaneous detection and quantification of Borrelia burgdorferi in field-collected Ixodes scapularis ticks from the northeastern United States
Article Abstract:
The authors have investigated Borrelia burgdorferi. The use of real-time PCR protocol for the study of B. burgdorferi-specific gene for the detection and quantification of the Lyme disease spirochete in field-collested Ixodes scapularis ticks is described.

Alternative splicing of transcripts from ctrI and ctrYB genes of Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous
Article Abstract:
The authors have studied Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous strain UCD 67-385. They have cloned the unexpected cDNA obtained from the strain's ctrI and ctrYB and ctrYB genes' RNAs could be spliced in alternative splice sites.
