Fig. 3

Melting curves of amplification products of different taeniids and average melting temperatures. a Melting curves for Echinococcus granulosus (G8/10) (red, i), E. multilocularis (blue, ii), Taenia pisiformis (dark green, iii), T. saginata (maroon, iv), and T. hydatigena (light green, v). Negative extraction control is the yellow line. b Average melting temperatures ± 2 SD are shown for each assessed species. Note that there is no overlap between E. granulosus (G8/10) or any of the Taenia spp. The two peaks of E. multilocularis overlap with T. pisiformis and T. hydatigena, respectively
