Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic systematics of the genus Echinococcus (Cestoda: Taeniidae)

TL;DR: The orthodox taxonomy of Echinococcus established from morphological criteria has been revised from the standpoint of phylogenetic systematics and nine valid species including newly resurrected taxa are recognised as a result of the revision.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geographic pattern of genetic variation in the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis.

TL;DR: The nuclear DNA sequence for the immunodominant B cell epitope region of ezrin/radixin/moesin-like protein (elp) was extremely conservative, indicating that the elp antigen is available for immunodiagnosis in any endemic areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

State-of-the-art Echinococcus and Taenia: phylogenetic taxonomy of human-pathogenic tapeworms and its application to molecular diagnosis.

TL;DR: The recent advances of taeniid phylogeny and its application to molecular diagnosis are introduced and it is shown that phylogenetic relationships among the members of these genera are clarifying.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic polymorphisms of Echinococcus tapeworms in China as determined by mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences

TL;DR: The results suggest the following hypotheses: (i) recent founder effects arose in E. granulosus and E. multilocularis after introducing particular individuals into the endemic areas by anthropogenic movement or natural migration of host mammals, and (ii) the ancestor of E. shiquicus was segregated into the Tibetan Plateau by colonising alpine mammals and its mitochondrial locus has evolved without bottleneck effects.
