Gardner? United States Departmentof Agriculture,Agricultural Research Service, Biosystematics and NationalParasite CollectionUnit, BARCEast No. 1180, 10300 BaltimoreAvenue, Beltsville,Maryland 20705 ABSTRACT: Cladistic analysis of a numericaldata matrix describing 27 charactersfor species of Taenia resulted in 4 most parsimoniousphylogenetic trees (174 steps; consistencyindex = 0.28; homoplasyindex = 0.72; retentionindex = 0.48). Mono- phyly for Taenia is diagnosed by the metacestodethat is either a cysticercus or a form derived from a bladder-likelarva; no other unequivocalsynapomorphies are evident. Tree structureprovides no supportfor recognition of a diversity of tribes or genera within the Taeniinae:Fimbriotaeniini and Taeniinihave no phylogeneticbasis. Hydatigera,Fimbriotaenia, Fossor, Mon- ordotaenia, Multiceps, Taeniarhynchus,Tetratirotaenia must be subsumed within Taenia as synonyms. Taenia saginata and Taenia asiatica are sister species and distantlyrelated to Taeniasolium. Cospeciationwith respectto carnivorousdefinitive hosts and Taenia appearsto be limited. Althoughfelids are putativeancestral hosts, contemporaryassociations appear to have resulted from extensive host-switchingamong felids, canids, hyaenids,and others.In contrast,relationships with herbivorousintermediate hosts are indicativeof more pervasive coevolution;rodents as intermediatehosts are postulatedas ancestralfor the Taeniidae, Taenia + Echinococcus.Patterns appear consistent with rapid shifts between phylogeneticallyunrelated carnivores but among those that historicallyexploited a common prey resourcewithin communitiesin specific biogeographicregions.

  • Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis of the Larval and Adult Stages of Taenia Pisiformis
    G C A T T A C G G C A T genes Article Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis of the Larval and Adult Stages of Taenia pisiformis Shaohua Zhang State Key Laboratory of Veterinary Etiological Biology, Key Laboratory of Veterinary Parasitology of Gansu Province, Lanzhou Veterinary Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Lanzhou 730046, China; [email protected]; Tel.: +86-931-8342837 Received: 19 May 2019; Accepted: 1 July 2019; Published: 4 July 2019 Abstract: Taenia pisiformis is a tapeworm causing economic losses in the rabbit breeding industry worldwide. Due to the absence of genomic data, our knowledge on the developmental process of T. pisiformis is still inadequate. In this study, to better characterize differential and specific genes and pathways associated with the parasite developments, a comparative transcriptomic analysis of the larval stage (TpM) and the adult stage (TpA) of T. pisiformis was performed by Illumina RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) technology and de novo analysis. In total, 68,588 unigenes were assembled with an average length of 789 nucleotides (nt) and N50 of 1485 nt. Further, we identified 4093 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in TpA versus TpM, of which 3186 DEGs were upregulated and 907 were downregulated. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes (KEGG) analyses revealed that most DEGs involved in metabolic processes and Wnt signaling pathway were much more active in the TpA stage. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) validated that the expression levels of the selected 10 DEGs were consistent with those in RNA-seq, indicating that the transcriptomic data are reliable. The present study provides comparative transcriptomic data concerning two developmental stages of T.

    Taeniasis, a Neglegted Tropical Disease in Sumatra Utara Province, Indonesia Umar Zein* and Indra Janis Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Islam Sumatera Utara Keywords: Taeniasis, Simalungun Regency, Neglegted Tropical Disease Abstract: Taeniasis is humans and animals infection due to Taenia or tapeworm specieses. The infection that occurs in humans because ingestion of meat and visceral organs that containing cysts as infective stage (Cystecercus larvae). The cause of taeniasis in humans are Taenia solium, Taenia saginata and Taenia asiatica. Taeniasis is one of the neglected diseases and is an unsolved problem in the world because it corelates with human behavior and lifestyle. Material and Methode: The survey was conducted from September 2017 until November 2017 ini Nagori Dolok, Village, Silau Kahaean Sub-district, Simalungun Regency, Sumatra Utara Proince, Indonesia We met some of the people who had been Taeniasis patients and conveyed the purpose of the team's arrival. From 180 patients we suspect as Taenia carriers by clinical signs and physical examination and microscopic examination of eggs and proglottid worm that passing with feces or by anal swab. Result: From 180 suspected taenia carriers, we confirmed 171 patients diagnosed as Taeniasis and we treated by Praziquantel Tablet single dose and laxative. All of patients passing proglottids (segment of the worms), taenia eggs and proglottids strands. The longest proglottids strands that we found were 10.5 meters. Conclusion: Taeniasis (Tapeworm infection) is still widely found in the district Simalungun Regency which is negleted tropical disease that needs to get the attention of the Indonesia government through the Health Office of Regency and Province.

They are soft bodied, unsegmented, dorsoventrally flattened worms having a bilateral symmetry, with organ grade of organization. Flatworms are acoelomate and triploblastic. The majority of these are parasitic. The free living forms are generally aquatic, either marine or fresh water. Digestive system is either absent or incomplete with a single opening- the mouth, anus is absent. Circulatory, respiratory and skeletal system are absent. Excretion and osmoregulation is brought about by protonephridia or flame cells. Ammonia is the chief excretory waste product. Nervous system is of the primitive type having a pair of cerebral ganglia and longitudinal nerves connected by transverse commissures. Sense organs are poorly developed, present only in the free living forms. Basically hermaphrodite with a complex reproductive system. Development is either direct or indirect with one or more larval stages. Flatworms have a remarkable power of regeneration. The phylum includes about 13,000 species. Here Dugesia and Fasciola hepatica will be described as the type study to understand the phylum. Some of the medically important parasitic helminthes will also be discussed. Evolution of parasitism and parasitic adaptations is of utmost importance for the endoparasitic platyhelminthes and will also be discussed here.

Morphology and nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial cytochromec oxidase subunit 1gene (mt DNA COI) ofthe cestode found was examined. The cestode is differed from T hydatigena both morphologically and genetically. The differences between two species were in the gross length, different number of testes, presence of vaginal sphincter and in egg size. The nucleotide sequence of this cestode differed from that of 7: hydatigena at 34 of the 384 (8.6%) nucleotide positions examined. The present cestode is very close to 7: kotlani in morphology and size of rostellar hooks. However, the adult stages of the latter species are unknown, and further comparison was unfeasible. Key words: Mongolia, snow leopard, Taenia, taxonomy, mt DNA, cestode, Taeniidae Introduction the use of more than one character for specific identification (Edwards & Herbert, 198 1 ).
