Alignment of topoisomerase II nucleotide sequences of Leishmania killicki, L. infantum, and L. major. Point mutations discriminating Leishmania species are outlined on a gray background. The references strains are GU459063: L. infantum MHOM/FR/78/LEM75; GU459064: L. killicki MHOM/TN/80/LEM163; GU459065: L. major MHOM/MA/81/LEM265 ; KILL_REF_T: L. killicki and INF_REF-IS: L. infantum, strains genotyped by the Leishmania National Reference Center, Montpellier, France. The isolates are: KILL_ISOL-:
