Genetic differences between Tunisian camel and sheep strains of the cestode Echinococcus granulosus revealed by SSCP

Genetic differences between Tunisian camel and sheep strains of the cestode Echinococcus granulosus revealed by SSCP

Ovine and dromedary Echinococcus granulosus isolates from Tunisia were identified as G1 and G6 strains based on polymorphism of the mitochondrial cytochrome C oxydase CO1. Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) was used in order to examine the genetic variation within and between Tunisian G1...
