Abstract

Taenia hydatigena cestode parasite found in the intestine of dogs and larval stage Cysticercus tenuicollis located in visceral organs of intermediate hosts (sheep and goats). In this study, investigate the genetic variation among the recovered isolates from sheep, goats, and stray dogs in Baghdad city, based on the mitochondrial cox1 gene. After DNA extraction, the PCR that was used indicated the specificity at the band (450bp) on the agarose gel. Sequencing and phylogenetic results were divided into three groups depending on the closed relationship between them and to NCBI-Blast T. hydatigena.
