parasite has an indirect life cycle utilizing dogs and other canids
as definitive hosts and many herbivorous and omnivorous species,
including wildlife and domesticated livestock as intermediate
hosts. E. granulosus has a number of genetically distinct strains,
which are known to differ phenotypically and therefore has
implications for its control. To date, ten genotypes (G1 - G10) of
E. granulosus have been identified using molecular tools and the
strain variation closely follow the parasite's biological and
phenotypic characteristics. Hydatidosis is also well recognized
zoonosis in Pakistan, affecting both human and his livestock,
various human cases has been reportedThis book highlights all
diagnostic techniques from basic to modern molecular tools for
hydatidosis in ruminants as well as in humans there are various
techniques through which this disease can be controlled
