Echinococcus granulosus genotype G1 dominated in cattle and sheep during 2003-2006 in Buenos Aires province, an endemic area for cystic echinococcosis in Argentina

The present study describes the epidemiology of cystic echinococcosis in cattle and sheep, and characterizes the genotypes of E. granulosus in the Pampa region of Argentina. Median joining network of mitochondrial nad1 gene fragment (343 bp) illustrating relationships of E. granulosus s.s. haplotypes from Buenos Aires province together with homologous sequences from GenBank.
