Abstract excerpt
Echinococcosis, a disease caused by infection with the larval stage of a tapeworm parasite of the genus Echinococcus, is of major socio-economic importance, and studying genetic variability within and between Echinococcus populations has important implications for disease control and epidemiology. Various DNA approaches have been used to study Echinococcus genetics, but most methods do not allow the accurate...
