| molecular characterization of two insect nematode species (oxyurida: thelastomatidae) using small subunit (18s) ribosomal dna sequence and secondary-structure analyses. | nematodes of the family thelastomatidae are parasitic in the alimentary tract of many arthropods, including periplaneta americana l. in meerut, uttar pradesh, india, two nematode species, namely hammerschmidtiella indicus and thelastoma icemi, belonging to this family have been reported. in the present study, the molecular phylogeny of these two nematode species was derived using small subunit (18s) sequence and secondary-structure analyses. the small subunit sequence analyses were carried out t ... | 2014 | 23452615 |
