The genome of tapeworm Taenia multiceps sheds light on understanding parasitic mechanism and control of coenurosis disease
30 May 2018
Abstract excerpt
Coenurosis, caused by the larval coenurus of the tapeworm Taenia multiceps, is a fatal central nervous system disease in both sheep and humans. Though treatment and prevention options are available, the control of coenurosis still faces presents great challenges. Here, we present a high-quality genome sequence of T. multiceps in which 240 Mb (96%) of the genome has been successfully assembled using Pacbio...
