Molecular Identification of <i>Sarcocystis</i> Species in Sheep from Lithuania

Molecular Identification of <i>Sarcocystis</i> Species in Sheep from Lithuania

Data on the distribution of different <i>Sarcocystis</i> species in various muscles of sheep are scarce. In the present study, 190 diaphragm, oesophagus, and heart muscle samples of 69 sheep raised in Lithuania were examined for the presence of <i>Sarcocystis</i> spp. Under a...
