Abstract:Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a serious global health concern, with Iran being recognized to have a high prevalence of the disease. The substantial genetic diversity of this parasite is closely linked to its life cycle, mechanisms of transmission, and toxicity. This study aimed to explore the phylogenetic structure of the genotypes of Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (s. l.) in southwest Iran (SWI). Seventy-two hydatid cyst samples were taken from a range of intermediate hosts, including naturally infected a… Show more
