Özet:

Cystic echinococcus (KE) of Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (s.I.) Created by larval form, it is a zoonosis-like infection that affects humans, farm animals and wild animals. According to molecular and taxonomic studies conducted in recent years, the KE is a complex of five cryptic species, Echinococcus granulosus s.l.It is accepted that it leads. In this study, morphological and molecular characteristics of a wild pig infected naturally with hydatide cysts and cyst materials obtained from a cataracts were made. Methods: using specific primates after gDNA isolation, the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (mt-CO1) is multiplied with the gene area polymerase chain reaction (PZR). The extended mt-CO1 PZR products were purified and one-way DNA series analysis was carried out. Results: As a result of a comparison with the reference sequences in GenBank, it was found that the part sequences of the hydatid cyst isolat in the mt-CO1 gen area were 100% similar to the sequences of E. granulosus sensu stricto (G1-G3). This study is the first study in Turkey aimed at determining the molecular characterization of Echinococcus species in wild pigs.
