Gastrointestinal Parasites in Free-Ranging Saguinus ursulus From the Eastern Brazilian Amazon: First Report of Prosthenorchis sp. [PDF]

J Med Primatol
ABSTRACT Enteroparasites were investigated in free‐ranging Saguinus ursulus from the eastern Brazilian Amazon. Parasites were detected in 76.5% (13/17) of capture events, with Prosthenorchis sp. most frequently detected (58.8%; 10/17). Animals showed good body condition and no clinical abnormalities.

Intestinal Parasites of Zoonotic Significance in Human and Domestic Animals in a Rural Setting in Nepal. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Intestinal parasites are shared among humans and domestic animals. Rural setting is critical to enhance parasite zoonosis in Nepal. ABSTRACT Intestinal parasitic (IP) species with zoonotic significance are major public health issues, mostly prevalent in developing countries, leading to high morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to assess the

ParaHox Genes Revisited: From Gut Patterning to Integrated Axial and Neural Organization in Rotifera. [PDF]

J Exp Zool B Mol Dev Evol
In rotifers, ParaHox genes show a dispersed genomic organization, with Xlox absent across gnathiferans. Exclusive neuronal expression of Gsx and Cdx reveals that ancestral ParaHox genes coordinated neural and epithelial development beyond gut patterning, suggesting an integrated role in early bilaterian body plan organization.

Transcriptome data reveal Syndermatan relationships and suggest the evolution of endoparasitism in Acanthocephala via an epizoic stage.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The taxon Syndermata comprises the biologically interesting wheel animals ("Rotifera": Bdelloidea + Monogononta + Seisonidea) and thorny-headed worms (Acanthocephala), and is central for testing superordinate phylogenetic hypotheses (Platyzoa, Gnathifera)
