Advances and trends in the molecular systematics of anisakid nematodes, with implications for their evolutionary ecology and host-parasite co-evolutionary processes.

TL;DR: Examples in which anisakid nematodes recognized genetically at the species level in definitive and intermediate/paratenic hosts from various geographical areas of the Boreal and Austral regions and their infection levels have been used as biological indicators of fish stocks and food-web integrity in areas at high versus low levels of habitat disturbance are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular systematics, phylogeny and ecology of anisakid nematodes of the genus Anisakis dujardin, 1845 : An update

TL;DR: Preliminary data for reconstruction of a possible co-evolutionary scenario between cetacean hosts and their Anisakis endoparasites suggests that cospeciation and host-switching events may have accompanied the evolution of this group of parasites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic relationships among Anisakis species (Nematoda: Anisakidae) inferred from mitochondrial cox2 sequences, and comparison with allozyme data.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses based upon Parsimony and Bayesian Inference, as well as phenetic analysis based upon Neighbor-Joining p-distance values, generated similar tree topologies, each well supported at major nodes.
Book ChapterDOI

Molecular Epidemiology of Anisakis and Anisakiasis: An Ecological and Evolutionary Road Map.

TL;DR: This review addresses the biodiversity, biology, distribution, ecology, epidemiology, and consumer health significance of the so far known species of Anisakis, both in their natural hosts and in human accidental host populations, worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular phylogenetics and diagnosis of Anisakis, Pseudoterranova, and Contracaecum from northern Pacific marine mammals.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis of LSU sequences revealed strong support for the monophyly of Anisakinae, Contracaecum plus Phocascaris, Pseudoterranova, and Anisakis, which is primarily consistent with previously published phenograms based on multilocus electrophoretic data.

Genetic and ecological data on the Anisakis simplex complex, with evidence for a new species (Nematoda, Ascaridoidea, Anisakidae).

TL;DR: A new distinct gene pool was detected, showing different alleles with respect to A. simplex sensu stricto and Anisakis pegreffii, widely extending the geographic ranges and the number of hosts of these 2 species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of anisakid nematodes with zoonotic potential by nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences.

TL;DR: PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism and single-strand conformation polymorphism methods were established for the unequivocal delineation of the three species and should provide valuable tools for studying the life-cycle, transmission pattern(s), population structure and diagnosis of anisakiasis in humans and animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrophoretic studies on the Anisakis simplex complex (Ascaridida:Anisakidae) from the Mediterranean and North-East Atlantic.

TL;DR: The genetic variation of the sibling species Anisakis simplex A and A. simplex B was investigated by electrophoretic analysis of 22 gene-enzyme systems and several paratenic hosts and one cetacean definitive host are identified for each of the two species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic evidence for three species within Pseudoterranova decipiens (Nematoda, Ascaridida, Ascaridoidea) in the North Atlantic and Norwegian and Barents Seas.

TL;DR: Genetic variation of 1017 specimens of codworm, Pseudoterranova decipiens, collected from fish and seals at 23 sampling locations in the North Atlantic and Norwegian and Barents Seas, was analysed on the basis of 16 enzyme loci, indicating high levels of gene flow within each of the three species.
