High annealing temperature-random amplified polymorphic DNA (HAT-RAPD) analysis of three paramphistome flukes from Thailand

The rumen flukes of 37 cows (Bos indicus) from Chiang Mai and Lamphun provinces were investigated, and the overall prevalence of infection was 78.38% (29/37). Three species were found: Paramphistomum epiclitum, Orthocoelium streptocoelium, and Fischoederius elongatus with prevalences of infection of...

Description
Summary:The rumen flukes of 37 cows (Bos indicus) from Chiang Mai and Lamphun provinces were investigated, and the overall prevalence of infection was 78.38% (29/37). Three species were found: Paramphistomum epiclitum, Orthocoelium streptocoelium, and Fischoederius elongatus with prevalences of infection of 75.68%, 48.65%, and 40.54%, respectively. Genomic DNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction based on the high annealing temperature-random amplification of polymorphic DNA (HAT-RAPD) technique. Five random 10-mer oligonucleotide primers (OPA2, OPA4, OPB18, OPC9, and OPH11) produced distinct banding patterns in three species. No genetic variations in these three species were identified using 10 arbitary primers. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
