Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Opisthorchis-like eggs are a public health problem in northern and northeastern Thailand. However, the genetic epidemiology and structure of these parasites in northern Thailand are unknown. Thus, this study investigated their population genetic structure using cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (nad1) nucleotide sequences. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: A study...
