Variation in the size of eggs and the numbers and distribution of testes in the tapeworm, Echinococcus granulosus

Morphological variation in helminthes parasites is a well- established phenomenon and may have many sources and important taxonomic implications. The morphological differences between the two isolates of Echinococcus granulosus were the dimensions of worm total length , number of the developing seg...
