Abstract

A total of 18 enzymes (encoded by 20 loci) from Paragonimus heterotremus collected at a local area in Saraburi, Thailand, were electrophoretically compared with those from the three Japanese species P. ohirai, P. miyazakii and P. westermani using horizontal starchgel electrophoresis. Relative genetic distances between these species were quantified. The Thai P. heterotremus was found to be most closely related to P. miyazaki and rather distantly related to P. westermani. On the other hand, among the three Japanese species, the closest relationship was observed between P. miyazakii and P. ohirai. © 1992 Springer-Verlag.
