Intron sequence variation of the echinostomes (Trematoda; Echinostomatidae): implications for genetic investigations of the 37 collar-spined, Echinostoma miyagawai Ischii, 1932 and E. revolutum (Fröelich, 1802).

Abstract excerpt

Echinostomes are a diverse group of digenetic trematodes that are difficult to classify by predominantly traditional techniques and contain many cryptic species. Application of contemporary genetic/molecular markers can provide an alternative choice for comprehensive classification or systematic analysis. In this study, we successfully characterized the intron 5 of domain 1 of the taurocyamine kinase gene...
