Background: One of the most important zoonotic helminths in the world is known as . Different strains of the have been described based on morphological and molecular characterizations, however, there is limited information regarding the characteristics of the phenotypes and genotypes of in Iran.
Methods: The present study was prepared to evaluate the phenotypic and genotypic diversity of isolates collected from human, goat, sheep, and cattle based on 19 standard morphometric parameters and mitochondrial and nuclear genes (, and ) in Kashan, Markazi Province, Iran during 2013-2014.
Results: The biometric analysis for the 19 characters revealed that the 19 morphometric values of cattle isolates were exceptionally higher than human, goat, and sheep isolates (<0.05). Molecular analysis confirms the morphological findings. Phylogenic analysis of the , and genes for all isolates, independent of the host, revealed that the common sheep strain (G1) is traveling among livestock in Kashan and the strains are highly adapted to goats, cattle, sheep, and humans.
Conclusion: Both morphological and molecular results of this study indicated that the only genotype G1 of travels between humans and other intermediate hosts of this parasite in the area study.
