Mitochondrial genomes of individual microfilariae: Undescribed <i>Dirofilaria</i> -like filariae from Malaysian cats and two filaria species related to <i>Dirofilaria</i> and <i>Mansonella</i> from Indonesian macaques
2026-02-09
Abstract excerpt
Three molecularly undescribed filarial species were co-detected, while screening animals for Brugia malayi , the agent of lymphatic filariasis. Single microfilariae (Mf) isolated from blood samples of crab-eating macaques ( Macaca fascicularis ) from Belitung, Indonesia, and from pet dogs and cats in Sabah, Malaysia, were analyzed. Among 163 macaques, 33 (20.2%) were positive for large Mf (mean length 498.9 µm)...
