TLDR
It is suggested that anisakiasis in Japan is mainly caused by A. simplex sensu stricto because it penetrates the muscle of the fish at a higher rate than A. pegreffii.About:

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.

First report of human anisakidosis in Australia.
Shokoofeh Shamsi,Andrew Butcher +1 more
TL;DR: The first human case of anisakidosis acquired from eating locally caught fish in Australia is presented, where a 41-year-old woman experienced gastrointestinal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea of increasing severity over 3 weeks that resolved spontaneously after a worm was passed in her faeces.

Effects of anisakid nematodes Anisakis simplex (s.l.), Pseudoterranova decipiens (s.l.) and Contracaecum osculatum (s.l.) on fish and consumer health ☆
Kurt Buchmann,Foojan Mehrdana +1 more
TL;DR: Clinical symptoms associated with the infection, termed anisakidosis, vary from irritation of the oesophagus and stomach, via nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea to severe epigastric and abdominal pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisakis simplex sensu stricto and Anisakis pegreffii: Biological Characteristics and Pathogenetic Potential in Human Anisakiasis
TL;DR: Results show that A. simplex (s.s.) larvae have the potential to survive acidic gastric juice to some extent and penetrate the stomach, small intestine, colon, or colon in infected humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foodborne anisakiasis and allergy.
TL;DR: Some aspects of this food-borne disease are reviewed and its link to chronic, allergic conditions in humans is explained and its subsequent sensitisation of the human patient is explained.

MEGA4: Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA) Software Version 4.0
TL;DR: Version 4 of MEGA software expands on the existing facilities for editing DNA sequence data from autosequencers, mining Web-databases, performing automatic and manual sequence alignment, analyzing sequence alignments to estimate evolutionary distances, inferring phylogenetic trees, and testing evolutionary hypotheses.

A simple, fast, and accurate algorithm to estimate large phylogenies by maximum likelihood.
Stéphane Guindon,Olivier Gascuel +1 more
TL;DR: This work has used extensive and realistic computer simulations to show that the topological accuracy of this new method is at least as high as that of the existing maximum-likelihood programs and much higher than the performance of distance-based and parsimony approaches.

Approximate likelihood-ratio test for branches : A fast, accurate, and powerful alternative
Maria Anisimova,Olivier Gascuel +1 more
TL;DR: A new, fast, approximate likelihood-ratio test (aLRT) for branches is presented here as a competitive alternative to nonparametric bootstrap and Bayesian estimation of branch support and is shown to be accurate, powerful, and robust to certain violations of model assumptions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic markers in ribosomal DNA for the identification of members of the genus Anisakis (Nematoda: ascaridoidea) defined by polymerase-chain-reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism.
Stefano D'Amelio,Kostas D. Mathiopoulos,Cláudia Portes Santos,O.N Pugachev,S.C. Webb,M Picanço,Lia Paggi +6 more
TL;DR: The polymorphisms obtained by restriction fragment length polymorphisms have provided a new set of genetic markers for the accurate identification of sibling species and morphospecies.

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.
