Molecular Detection and Genotyping of Toxoplasma gondii in Edward's Long-Tailed Rats (Leopoldamys edwardsi)

Genetic diversity of Toxoplasma gondii isolates from rodents in the world: A systematic review

“…In this global systematic review, initially, 7,319 records were retrieved through principled search. After deleting duplicate records and screening, 24 studies were finally evaluated appropriate to be entered into this research (Araújo et al., 2010; de Lima et al., 2019; Dellarupe et al., 2019; Dubey et al., 2006, 2011; Galal et al., 2019; Herrmann et al., 2013; Howe & Sibley, 1995; Jokelainen & Nylund, 2012; Lehmann et al., 2003; Machačová et al., 2016; Muradian et al., 2012; Murata et al., 2018; Ruffolo et al., 2016; Silva et al., 2017; Vitaliano et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2013, 2018, 2019; Yai et al., 2009; Yan et al., 2014; Zhang et al., 2013, 2014; Zheng et al., 2019). Figure 1 demonstrates the details of the search and study selection procedure in a PRISMA flow diagram.…”

“…Wild rats play a substantial role in this transmission because they can circulate between wild and human habitats. Human activities such as travel, trade also cause the accidental forwarding of infected rodents from one geographical region to other parts, therefore, provide conditions the strains transmit worldwide and sometimes new genotypes are introduced in the region (Shwab et al., 2014; Zheng et al., 2019).…”

Molecular Detection of Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum in Domestic Ducks in Hunan Province, China

“…SAG2), SAG3, BTUB, GRA6, c22-8, c29-2, L358, PK1, and Apico) using the multi-locus PCR-RFLP analysis as previously described ( 29) (Table 2). Eight reference T. gondii strains (GT1, PTG, CTG, MAS, TgCgCa1, TgCatBr5, TgCatBr64, and TgRsCr1) were included as controls as reported in previous studies (33,34). The genotype was determined by comparing its multilocus pattern to the pattern of all genotypes present in ToxoDB (http://toxodb.org/toxo/) (35).…”
