| sarcocysts (sarcocystis sp.: sporozoa) in the european badger, meles meles. | sarcocysts from the tongue muscle of a european badger (meles meles) are reported for the first time and described by light and transmission electron microscopy. judging from the ultrastructure of the cyst wall, the parasite is similar to the species sarcocystis gracilis rátz, 1909 sensu erber, boch & barth (1978) from roe deer and possibly identical with it. this is noteworthy regarding the intermediate host specificity. | 1994 | 8008456 |
| on the diagnostics of sarcocystis in cattle: sarcocysts of a species unusual for bos taurus in a dwarf zebu. | sarcocysts from the musculature of a dwarf zebu born in a german zoo are described by light and transmission electron microscopy. in addition to the three named bovine sarcocystis species (sarcocystis cruzi, s. hominis, and s. hirsuta) a fourth species was found which was not previously reported from cattle. it mostly resembles sarcocystis gracilis rátz, 1909 from roe deer. | 1996 | 8988553 |

| sarcocystis in norwegian roe deer (capreolus capreolus): molecular and morphological identification of sarcocystis oviformis n. sp. and sarcocystis gracilis and their phylogenetic relationship with other sarcocystis species. | fresh muscle tissue from six roe deer from southeastern norway was examined for sarcocysts. cysts were excised and morphologically classified by light microscopy, and some cysts were further examined by scanning electron microscopy or dna amplification and sequencing of the small subunit (ssu) rrna gene. two sarcocystis species, sarcocystis gracilis and sarcocystis oviformis n. sp., were found and described by morphological and molecular methods. s. gracilis was found in all animals, whereas s. ... | 2009 | 19050921 |
| Morphological and molecular characterization and phylogenetic placement of Sarcocystis capreolicanis and Sarcocystis silva n. sp. from roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) in Norway. | Sarcocysts were isolated from the muscle tissue of three roe deer from southeastern Norway and examined by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and/or sequencing of the small subunit ribosomal RNA (ssu rRNA) gene. By light microscopy, four sarcocyst types were found, including those of Sarcocystis gracilis and Sarcocystis oviformis, which had been characterized previously. The third cyst type had about 10 µm long, flexible, hair-like surface protrusions, consistent with those of Sarcoc ... | 2011 | 21853224 |
| morphological and molecular characterization of four sarcocystis spp., including sarcocystis linearis n. sp., from roe deer (capreolus capreolus) in italy. | fresh (frozen/thawed) muscle samples from four 2-12-year-old roe deer (capreolus capreolus) from the sondrio province in north-eastern italy were examined under a dissecting microscope, and about 180 sarcocysts were isolated and identified to morphological type in wet mounts by light microscopy (lm). seventy-seven of these sarcocysts were subsequently examined by molecular methods, comprising polymerase chain reaction (pcr) amplification and sequencing of the partial cytochrome c oxidase subunit ... | 2017 | 28255918 |
| molecular characterization of sarcocystis species from polish roe deer based on ssu rrna and cox1 sequence analysis. | sarcocysts from four polish roe deer were collected and examined by light microscopy, small subunit ribosomal rna (ssu rrna), and the subunit i of cytochrome oxidase (cox1) sequence analysis. this resulted in identification of sarcocystis gracilis, sarcocystis oviformis, and sarcocystis silva. however, we were unable to detect sarcocystis capreolicanis, the fourth sarcocystis species found previously in norwegian roe deer. polish sarcocysts isolated from various tissues differed in terms of thei ... | 2014 | 24948101 |
| [sarcosporidias of cloven-hoofed wild animals. sarcosporidias in wild deer]. | 500 adult roes and 100 fawns were examined microscopically for the presence of sarcocystis gracilis von ratz, 1901. 95.80 per cent of the roes examined had sarcosporidias. the parasites were noticed macroscopically in less than a third of them. the abdominal muscles were affected most frequently and most strongly. the leg muscles were affected least of all. roe bucks were affected to a lesser extent than does. from the third month of life the fawns showed an incidence of parasites which increase ... | 1977 | 411394 |
