Breeding systems in Echinococcus granulosus (Cestoda; Taeniidae): selfing or outcrossing?

Parasitology - 1 Jan 1999

Haag K L, Araújo A M, Gottstein B, Siles-Lucas M, Thompson R C, Zaha A

Abstract excerpt

We used the PCR-SSCP method followed by sequencing in order to assess the genetic variability of coding and noncoding parts of the genome of Echinococcus granulosus (Cestoda; Taeniidae) and to test whether or not the parasite populations are mainly self-fertilizing. For this, we analysed a sample of 110 E. granulosus metacestode isolates collected from different geographical regions (Southern Brazil, Europe and...
