| molecular phylogeography of angiostrongylus cantonensis (nematoda: angiostrongylidae) and genetic relationships with congeners using cytochrome b gene marker. | angiostrongylus cantonensis is an important emerging zoonotic parasite causing human eosinophilic meningitis (or meningoencephalitis) in many parts of the world. to-date there is only a single study using mitochondrial cytochrome b (cytb) gene to determine its genetic structure in eight geographical localities in thailand. the present study examined the molecular phylogeography of this rat lungworm and its phylogenetic relationship with congeners using cytb gene marker. a total of 15 cytb haplot ... | 2015 | 25930187 |
