PCR products of the mini-exon gene in blood of bats from the “El Zapotal” Ecological Reserve. Amplification resulted in a PCR product of 350 bp and this confirms that these parasites belong to the TCI group. L: Ladder; Samples: 1 positive control (Qro. strain); 2–11 A. jamaicensis; 12–14 A. lituratus; 15–16 C. perspicillata; 17–18 S. lilium; 19 G. soricina.
