Biomphalaria snails are intermediate hosts of Schistosoma mansoni, and their distribution predicts where intestinal schistosomiasis may occur. Here, we investigated the genetic diversity and distribution patterns of Biomphalaria spp. in the...
Good parasites make bad hosts: why is hyperparasitism uncommon among metazoan parasites [0.03%]
好寄生虫成就差宿主——为什么多宿主寄生在动物寄生虫中不常见

Hyperparasitism, in which a parasite exploits another parasite, represents a logical extension of parasite diversity and complexity within ecological networks. While common and ecologically significant in microbial systems, hyperparasitism ...
The duration and pattern of recurring heatwaves shape host-parasite interactions under thermal stress [0.03%]
高温热浪的持续时间和模式影响下宿主与寄生虫之间的相互作用

Viktoria Rozmann et al.
Anthropogenic climate change is expected to increase not only mean temperatures but also the magnitude and pattern of thermal variability, including the frequency, duration, and predictability of extreme events. While the effects of elevate...
Protein kinase G regulates microneme exocytosis through a microneme-localized ion transport domain-containing protein in Neospora caninum [0.03%]
蛋白激酶G通过一个定位于隐孢子虫微胞中的离子转运结构域含蛋白质调节微胞分泌作用

Pilar Alda et al.
Calicophoron daubneyi is an emerging rumen fluke of ruminants whose prevalence and geographic range have increased markedly across Western Europe over recent decades. Despite its growing veterinary importance, population-level genetic studi...
Hidden digenean diversity in two African protected areas: metabarcoding as a tool for parasite identification [0.03%]
非洲保护区中隐现的双壳虫多样性:一种用于寄生虫鉴定的元条形码工具

Anya V Tober et al.
African protected areas support exceptional wildlife diversity, yet their parasite diversity remains poorly characterised. Documenting parasite biodiversity is increasingly urgent as global change alters species distributions and threatens ...
Nearly Bitten, Twice Shy: Effects of prior and current parasite exposure on host mating behaviour [0.03%]
几乎被咬,两次害羞:先前和当前的寄生虫暴露对宿主交配行为的影响

Parasite exposure without infection can lead to risk-induced trait responses with potential costs to host fitness or non-consumptive effects (NCEs). The various ways in which NCEs can manifest has gained considerable research attention, but...
Bringing order to chaos: A new classification of avian schistosomes and their genetic lineages in the context of swimmer's itch [0.03%]
从混沌到有序:鸟类血吸虫及其游泳者痒病遗传谱系的新分类法
Caroline J Kibet,Roman Kuchta,Petra Kundid et al.
Caroline J Kibet et al.
Schistosomes are parasitic flatworms that infect birds and mammals, including humans, using gastropods as intermediate hosts. Despite their ecological and medical importance, the taxonomy of avian schistosomes is poorly understood due to mo...
Assessing myxozoan diversity in fish: microscopy-based detection versus high-throughput amplicon sequencing [0.03%]
鱼类黏体虫多样性的评估:显微镜检测与高通量扩增子测序之间的比较
Peng Ding,Xiao Yi Zhang,En Bang Shao et al.
Peng Ding et al.
Accurately assessing the diversity of myxozoans (Cnidaria) continues to pose a significant taxonomic challenge. Here we evaluated the efficacy of microscopy-based detection in comparison to high-throughput amplicon sequencing by exhaustivel...
