Plant parasitic nematodes (PPN) locate host plants by following concentration gradients of root exudate chemicals in the soil. We present a simple method for RNA interference (RNAi)-induced knockdown of genes in tomato seedling roots, facil...
Automated parasite faecal egg counting using fluorescence labelling, smartphone image capture and computational image analysis [0.03%]
使用荧光标记、智能手机图像采集和计算图像分析进行自动寄生虫粪便虫卵计数
Paul Slusarewicz,Stefanie Pagano,Christopher Mills et al.
Paul Slusarewicz et al.
Intestinal parasites are a concern in veterinary medicine worldwide and for human health in the developing world. Infections are identified by microscopic visualisation of parasite eggs in faeces, which is time-consuming, requires technical...
Computational deconvolution of gene expression by individual host cellular subsets from microarray analyses of complex, parasite-infected whole tissues [0.03%]
基于寄生虫感染的复杂整体组织的基因表达数据分析计算获得宿主单个细胞亚群的基因表达
Nirad Banskota,Justin I Odegaard,Gabriel Rinaldi et al.
Nirad Banskota et al.
Analyses of whole organs from parasite-infected animals can reveal the entirety of the host tissue transcriptome, but conventional approaches make it difficult to dissect out the contributions of individual cellular subsets to observed gene...
Cryptosporidium within-host genetic diversity: systematic bibliographical search and narrative overview [0.03%]

Human African trypanosomiasis a fatal disease for which no vaccines exist and treatment regimens are difficult. Here, we evaluate a Trypanosoma brucei protein kinase, AEK1, as a potential drug target. Conditional knockouts confirmed AEK1 es...
When proglottids and scoleces conflict: phylogenetic relationships and a family-level classification of the Lecanicephalidea (Platyhelminthes: Cestoda) [0.03%]
当节片与吸盘冲突时：Lecanicephalidea（platyhelminthes：cestoda）的系统发育关系和科级分类学
Kirsten Jensen,Janine N Caira,Joanna J Cielocha et al.
Kirsten Jensen et al.
This study presents the first comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the interrelationships of the morphologically diverse elasmobranch-hosted tapeworm order Lecanicephalidea, based on molecular sequence data. With almost half of current ge...
Reappraisal of Hydatigera taeniaeformis (Batsch, 1786) (Cestoda: Taeniidae) sensu lato with description of Hydatigera kamiyai n. sp [0.03%]
广义的 Hydatigera taeniaeformis (Batsch，1786)(cestoda：Taeniidae) 的再评价及新种 H.kamiyai 的描述
Antti Lavikainen,Takashi Iwaki,Voitto Haukisalmi et al.
Antti Lavikainen et al.
The common cat tapeworm Hydatigera taeniaeformis is a complex of three morphologically cryptic entities, which can be differentiated genetically. To clarify the biogeography and the host spectrum of the cryptic lineages, 150 specimens of H....
Repeated praziquantel treatments remodel the genetic and spatial landscape of schistosomiasis risk and transmission [0.03%]
反复使用吡喹酮治疗会重塑华支睾吸虫病风险和传播的基因型和空间分布格局
Lúcio M Barbosa,Eliana A Reis,Cláudio R A Dos Santos et al.
Lúcio M Barbosa et al.
Repeated treatments with praziquantel reduce schistosomiasis prevalence and morbidity, but transmission persists and populations often recover within a few years. To identify factors associated with persistence, we surveyed and treated all ...
Double-stranded RNA-mediated interference of dumpy genes in Bursaphelenchus xylophilus by feeding on filamentous fungal transformants [0.03%]
利用拟青霉菌转化体饲喂法在松材线虫中沉默dumpy基因
Meng Wang,Diandong Wang,Xi Zhang et al.
Meng Wang et al.
RNA interference (RNAi) is a valuable tool for studying gene function in vivo and provides a functional genomics platform in a wide variety of organisms. The pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is a prominent invasive plant-paras...
Myxozoan infections of caecilians demonstrate broad host specificity and indicate a link with human activity [0.03%]
