A common origin of complex life cycles in parasitic flatworms: evidence from the complete mitochondrial genome of <it>Microcotyle sebastis </it>(Monogenea: Platyhelminthes)
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The parasitic Platyhelminthes (Neodermata) contains three parasitic groups of flatworms, each having a unique morphology, and life style: Monogenea (primarily ectoparasitic), Trematoda (endoparasitic flukes), and Cestoda (endoparasit...
