Microsatellite genotyping supports the hypothesis that Teladorsagia davtiani and Teladorsagia trifurcata are morphotypes of Teladorsagia circumcincta.

Abstract excerpt

Traditionally nematode species designations have been based on morphological criteria. However, it is has long been recognised that valid species designations are critical for basic biological and epidemiological studies. The ever increasing use of molecular and genetic techniques has allowed traditional classifications to be more closely examined. The sub-family Ostertagiinae is of particular interest as many of...
