A genetic analysis of Trichuris trichiura and Trichuris suis from Ecuador [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2015 Background Since the nematodes Trichuris trichiura and T. suis are morphologically indistinguishable, genetic analysis is required to assess epidemiological cross-over between people and pigs.

Clear genetic distinctiveness between human- and pig-derived Trichuris based on analyses of mitochondrial datasets. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012 The whipworm, Trichuris trichiura, causes trichuriasis in ∼600 million people worldwide, mainly in developing countries. Whipworms also infect other animal hosts, including pigs (T. suis), dogs (T.

Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Trichuristrichiura from Macaca sylvanus and Papio papio
Life, 2021 Trichuriasis is among the most prevalent worldwide parasitism caused by helminths. For many years, Trichuris spp. have been described with a relatively narrow range of both morphological and biometrical features.

Phylogenetic evidence that two distinct Trichuris genotypes infect both humans and non-human primates. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Although there has been extensive debate about whether Trichuris suis and Trichuris trichiura are separate species, only one species of the whipworm T. trichiura has been considered to infect humans and non-human primates.

Re-visiting Trichuris trichiura intensity thresholds based on anemia during pregnancy. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012 The intensity categories, or thresholds, currently used for Trichuris trichiura (ie. epg intensities of 1-999 (light); 1,000-9,999 epg (moderate), and ≥ 10,000 epg (heavy)) were developed in the 1980s, when there were little epidemiological data ...
