The inserts were successfully sequenced and the results revealed that the ITS-2 plus flanking sequence (ITS2+) was composed of 270 nucleotides. and the ITS-2 was 113 bp in length. The ITS-2 of L. caulleryi was analysed by NCBI Blast, and the degree of homology of the ITS-2 of L. caulleryi was compared with that of Eimeria tenella , Candida tropicalis and Saccharomyces kluyveri and others by wDNASIS.
