Abstract excerpt
Monogenean parasites with a broad host range and direct life cycle provide insight into population genetic structure and dispersal processes. Dactylogyrus vistulae infects over 50 cyprinoid fish species across the western Palearctic, making it an ideal model for assessing host and geographic influences on parasite population structure. Herein, we utilized 20 microsatellite loci and mitochondrial COI sequences to...
