CRISPR‐Cas9‐mediated host signal reduction for 18S metabarcoding of host‐associated eukaryotes
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 6, August 2024.Abstract Metabarcoding‐based methods for identification of host‐associated eukaryotes have the potential to revolutionize parasitology and microbial ecology, yet significant technical challenges remain. In particular, highly abundant host reads can mask the presence of less‐abundant target organisms, especially for sample types rich in host DNA (e.g ...

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2024.Abstract A major current challenge related to invasions is the absence of a comprehensive theoretical basis for preventing the introduction of alien species and controlling their populations. By using a macroecological framework, we aim to examine patterns of symbiotic species diversity across native and invasive hosts to understand the mechanisms ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 4, July 2024.Over the study, 180 L. rohita specimens were examined,, revealing the presence of six distinct parasite species, consisting of endoparasites. Through microscopic examination, a total of 323 parasites were investigated, categories including Cestode, Nematode, Acanthocephala, Trematode and Digenia, predominantly residing in the intestines and liver of L.

Divvying up the pie: Tissue nutrient content is related to its parasite load
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.We investigated how the size and composition of parasitic infracommunities are affected by the nutrient content of their infection sites. We expected infracommunities to be dominated by parasites that were stoichiometrically similar to their infection sites. However, we found that parasites, themselves, can vary in nutrient content and that the size of

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 3, May–June 2024.Gelatinous zooplankton (GZP) are considered climate change winners, and particularly in the Southern Ocean, a significant shift from a krill‐based to a salp‐based ecosystem has undergone. In this study, we want to validate the paradigm shift from GZP being considered as “survival food” to a “regular” prey item for two demersal fish species (Notothenia ...

Parasitology, 2018 The acanthocephalans are characterized by a retractible proboscis, armed with rows of recurved hooks, which serves as the primary organ for attachment of the adult worm to the intestinal wall of the vertebrate definitive host.
