| phylogenetic relationships of trypanosoma chelodina and trypanosoma binneyi from australian tortoises and platypuses inferred from small subunit rrna analyses. | trypanosome infections are often difficult to detect by conventional microscopy and their pleomorphy often confounds differential diagnosis. molecular techniques are now being used to diagnose infections and to determine phylogenetic relationships between species. complete small subunit rrna gene sequences were determined for isolates of trypanosoma chelodina from the brisbane river tortoise (emydura signata), the saw-shelled tortoise (elseya latisternum), and the eastern snake-necked tortoise ( ... | 2001 | 11719959 |
| haematological, serum biochemical and serological features of platypuses with and without mycotic granulomatous dermatitis. | to determine whether there are haematological, serum biochemical and serological differences between platypuses (ornithorhynchus anatinus) with and without granulomatous dermatitis due to mucor amphibiorum infection. an additional objective was to establish reference haematological and serum biochemical ranges for the species in tasmania. | 1999 | 10685184 |
