Abstract

The identity of Anisakis type II larvae with adult A. physeteris was confirmed by comparison of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of 25S ribosomal DNA (rDNA). Patterns of RFLPs in larvae were almost identical with those in adult worms. Directly labelled 25S rDNA might serve as an appropriate probe with highly specific activity for examining RFLPs of larvae and adult worms.
