摘要：
This paper presents the genetic characterization of Trypanosoma cruzi strains isolated from chronic chagasic patients, triatomines, and sylvatic reservoirs from Parana state, Southern Brazil, using the RAPD and SSR-PCR techniques. It has shown the presence of both phylogenetic groups of T. cruzi(I and II), describing for the first time the existence of T. cruzi II in Parana state. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
