棘球绦虫属内的物种和菌株变异的模式是复杂和有争议的。为了客观地鉴定不同的种和株,测定了56株棘球绦虫分离株的线粒体细胞色素c氧化酶亚基I(CO1)基因的一个区域的序列。检测到11种不同的基因型,包括细粒棘球绦虫内的7种,并将这些基因型用于对分离株进行分类。使用这种方法,4种普遍接受的棘球绦虫属物种明显可区分。此外,E.根据各种不同的分化标准,颗粒肌群被广泛支持。在多房棘球绦虫内检测到非常小的变异。在DNA序列水平上发现了显著的菌株内均一性。这个快速进化的线粒体基因组区域可用作物种和菌株身份的标记,并作为棘球绦虫属内进化分歧的初步指示。
The pattern of species and strain variation within the genus Echinococcus is complex and controversial. In an attempt to characterise objectively the various species and strains, the sequence of a region of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (CO1) gene was determined for 56 Echinococcus isolates. Eleven different genotypes were detected, including 7 within Echinococcus granulosus, and these were used to categorise the isolates. The 4 generally accepted Echinococcus species were dearly distinguishable using this approach. In addition, the consensus view of the strain pattern within E. granulosus, based on a variety of criteria of differentiation, was broadly upheld. Very little variation was detected within Echinococcus multilocularis. Remarkable intra-strain homogeneity was found at the DNA sequence level. This region of the rapidly evolving mitochondrial genome is useful as a marker of species and strain identity and as a preliminary indication of evolutionary divergence within the genus Echinococcus.
