Morphological Description, Phylogenetic and Molecular Analysis of Dirofilaria immitis Isolated from Dogs in the Northwest of Iran

Abstract: Background: Dirofilariasis is a globally distributed arthropod-borne parasitic disease of mainly canids and felids. We evaluated to extend the knowledge of morpho-molecular characteristics and outer ultrastructure of Dirofilaria immitis isolated from Northwest of Iran. Methods: Overall, 67 filarial worms including 26 males parasites were collected from the cardiovascular system of the 43 stray dogs in Meshkinshar, Ardebil Province, Northwest of Iran in 2017, and subjected to light and scanning electron m… Show more

“…At the same time, these techniques are not always sufficient to determine the species of dirofilaria and are not sensitive enough (Svobodová et al, 2006). Therefore, most authors agree that the determining factor in the differential diagnosis of dirofilaria is the morphological identification of species (Simón et al, 2012;Khanmohammadi et al, 2020).…”
