| molecular phylogenetics of centrocestus formosanus (digenea: heterophyidae) originated from freshwater fish from chiang mai province, thailand. | this study aimed to investigate the morphology and reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of centrocestus formosanus originating from 5 species of freshwater fish, i.e., esomus metallicus, puntius brevis, anabas testudineus, parambassis siamensis, and carassius auratus, in chiang mai province, thailand. sequence-related amplified polymorphism (srap) and phylogeny based on internal transcribed spacer 2 (its2) and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (co1) were performed. the results s ... | 2017 | 28285504 |
| prevalence of centrocestus formosanus metacercariae in ornamental fish from chiang mai, thailand, with molecular approach using its2. | the prevalence of centrocestus formosanus metacercariae was investigated in ornamental fish purchased from a pet shop in chiang mai, thailand, including carassius auratus (goldfish), cyprinus carpio (koi), poecilia latipinna (sailfin molly), danio rerio (zebrafish), and puntigrus tetrazona (tiger barb). the parasite species was identified by the morphology of worms as well as by a molecular approach using its2. the results showed that 50 (33.3%) of 150 fish examined were infected with the metace ... | 2017 | 28877579 |
