Abstract excerpt
Genetic analyses of Echinococcus granulosus isolates from different intermediate host species have demonstrated substantial levels of variation for some genotype (strain) clusters. To determine the range of genetic variability within and between genotypes we amplified and cloned partial cox1 and nadh1 genes from 16 isolates of E. granulosus from 4 continents. Furthermore, we sequenced different clones from a PCR...
