Sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) gene, nuclear internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region of ribosomal DNA (rDNA), and 5S rDNA of Enterobius vermicularis from captive chimpanzees in five zoos/institutions in Japan were analyzed and compared with those of pinworm eggs from humans in Japan. Three major types of variants appearing in both CO1 and ITS2 sequences, but showing no apparent connection, were observed among materials collected from the chimpanzees. Each…

Gene-based molecular characterization of cox1 and pnad5 in Hymenolepis nana isolated from naturally infected mice and rats in Saudi Arabia
TLDR
Results demonstrated that the present species are deeply embedded in the genus Hymenolepis with close relationship to other Hymenolespis species, including H. nana as a putative sister taxon, and that the isolates cannot be categorized as belonging to two different groups with origins in Makkah and Riyadh.
Phylogenetic relationships between pinworms (Nematoda: Enterobiinae) parasitising the critically endangered orang-utan, according to the characterisation of molecular genomic and mitochondrial markers
TLDR
The phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial CO1 and chromosomal 18S rDNA and ITS1 regions could support the independent status of several Nematoda species, and shows possible close relationships between L. (Protenterobius) pongoi and P. hugoti; thus, it can be assumed that these species could have initially diverged in sympatry from a common ancestor.
Genetic variation in mitochondrial DNA among Enterobius vermicularis in Denmark
TLDR
Pinworms in Denmark is shown to be a homogenous population, when analysed using the cox1 mitochondrial gene, with DNA extracted from individual eggs collected from clinical (human) samples.

Redescription of Enterobius (Enterobius) macaci Yen, 1973 (Nematoda: Oxyuridae: Enterobiinae) Based on Material Collected from Wild Japanese Macaque, Macaca fuscata (Primates: Cercopithecidae)
TLDR
A pinworm collected from a Japanese macaque, Macaca fuscata, in Nara and Yamaguchi Prefectures, Honshu Island, Japan, for the first time is described, showing divergence before the splitting of the chimpanzee and human pinworms.

Genetic analysis of Enterobius vermicularis isolated from a chimpanzee with lethal hemorrhagic colitis and pathology of the associated lesions
TLDR
Histopathologically examined the lesions in tissues from the deceased chimpanzee and genetically characterized the isolated worms to investigate the pathogenicity and determine the phylogeny, indicating that E. vermicularis could be pathogenic in chimpanzees.
Genetic variation of Enterobius vermicularis among schoolchildren in Thailand.
TLDR
This work provides the first molecular identification of this nematode from Thai schoolchildren and document genetic variation among E. vermicularis eggs using sequence analyses of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene and the nuclear ribosomal DNA second internal transcribed spacer (ITS2).

Phylogenetic analysis of partial mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase c subunit I and large ribosomal RNA sequences and nuclear internal transcribed spacer I sequences from species of Cyathostominae and Strongylinae (Nematoda, Order Strongylida), parasites of the horse
TLDR
Molecular analysis failed to provide strong evidence for the separation of cyathostomes into classical genera, as previously defined by morphological classification.
Planarian mitochondria I. Heterogeneity of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequences in the freshwater planarian, Dugesia japonica
TLDR
Analysis of DNA sequences shows considerable sequence heterogeneity in the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene of a freshwater planarian, Dugesia japonica, collected in one locality, and a possible cause of the sequence heterogeneities is discussed.

Substitution bias, rapid saturation, and the use of mtDNA for nematode systematics.
TLDR
The usefulness of mtDNA for nematode phylogeny reconstruction is examined and data that can be used for a priori character weighting or for parameter specification in models of sequence evolution is provided.
Molecular approach in spider mites (Acari: Tetranychidae): Preliminary data on ribosomal DNA sequences
TLDR
DNA sequence data were used to examine phylogenetic relationships between six species of economically important Tetranychidae mites and the resulting phylogenetic tree expressing interspecific relationships in genusTetranychus agrees with morphological data.
Genetic Analysis of Lice Supports Direct Contact between Modern and Archaic Humans
TLDR
It is shown that modern human head lice, Pediculus humanus, are composed of two ancient lineages, whose origin predates modern Homo sapiens by an order of magnitude (ca. 1.18 million years).

TLDR
A morphologically based cladistic analysis of the Enterobiinae allows a reevaluation of the Cameron's hypothesis of close coevolution with cospeciation between hosts and parasites and confirms the subgroups previously described in the subfamily and supports its aspect of association by descent.
