Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Japan, outbreaks caused by parasites have increased. However, the molecular epidemiological analysis for parasites have not been well studied. A wide variety of molecular epidemiological analysis has been developed in the field of bacteriology and virology.In this study, we tried to apply these molecular analytical methods to parasites. We chose Kudoa septempunctata as a model parasite in this study. We demonstrated that Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA method was useful as the molecular epidemiological analysis method of K. septempunctata.
