Parasite, 2008 As many others parasites, speciation of flukes depends on the genetic characteristics and on ploidia. Ploidia of flukes can be different in a same species. In Asia, diploid, triploid and hybrid (2n/3n) populations are encountered. The comparison of morphological parameters between diploid and triploid flukes showed that they were morphologically ...
