Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) and cystic echinococcosis (CE) are severe helminthic
zoonoses. Echinococcus multilocularis (causative agent of AE) is widely distributed in the …

The genus Echinococcus is composed of eight generally recognized species and one
genotypic cluster (Echinococcus canadensis cluster) that may in future be resolved into one …

Echinococcus granulosus, formerly regarded as a single species with a high genotypic and
phenotypic diversity, is now recognised as an assemblage of cryptic species, which differ …

Genetic variability in the species group Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato is well
recognised as affecting intermediate host susceptibility and other biological features of the …

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is an important and widespread zoonotic infection caused by the
larval stages of taeniid cestodes of the genus Echinococcus. The disease represents a …

Echinococcosis/hydatidosis is one of the most important parasitic zoonotic diseases in the
world. Both cystic hydatidosis (CE) caused by Echinococcus granulosus and alveolar …

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a neglected zoonosis caused by infection with the cestode
Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato. We carried out a systematic literature review on E …

The variation in cystic echinococcosis (CE) prevalence and mean intensity was studied in
relation to site, season and host age and sex. A total of 12,911 slaughtered animals, 140 …

The larval forms of taeniid cestodes belonging to the genus Echinococcus are the source of
the zoonotic infection known as echinococcosis. Alveolar and cystic echinococcosis are …

The mitochondrial genomes of the genus Echinococcus have already been sequenced for
most species and genotypes to reconstruct their phylogeny. However, two important taxa, E …
