The mitochondrial genome of Parascaris univalens - implications for a “forgotten” parasite

Abstract Background Parascaris univalens is an ascaridoid nematode of equids. Little is known about its epidemiology and population genetics in domestic and wild horse populations. PCR-based methods are suited to support studies in these areas, provided that reliable genetic markers are used. Recent...
