title: Trichinella nativa haplotypes in Russia show diversity in cytochrome oxidase mtDNA gene.
abstract: Partial nucleotide sequences of the two mitochondrial genes (cytB and COI) were obtained for 13 Trichinella isolates from different regions of the Russian Federation. All the cytB mtDNA sequences were identical with the sequences of T. nativa from Canada, showing no nucleotide differences between isolates. Analysis of partial COI mtDNA sequence confirmed the species identification and revealed differences between the studied isolates. Two T. nativa haplotypes, represented in the studied material by four samples, demonstrate limited geographical distribution.
