Droplet digital PCR as a tool for investigating dynamics of cryptic symbionts
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Interactions among symbiotic organisms and their hosts are major drivers of ecological and evolutionary processes. Monitoring the infection patterns among natural populations and identifying factors affecting these interactions are critical for ...

NAD(P) transhydrogenase isoform distribution provides insight into apicomplexan evolution
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Membrane-located NAD(P) transhydrogenase (NTH) catalyses reversible hydride ion transfer between NAD(H) and NADP(H), simultaneously translocating a proton across the membrane. The enzyme is structurally conserved across prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Studies on coccidian oocysts (Apicomplexa: Eucoccidiorida) [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2014 The oocysts of the coccidia are robust structures, frequently isolated from the feces or urine of their hosts, which provide resistance to mechanical damage and allow the parasites to survive and remain infective for prolonged periods. The diagnosis of coccidiosis, species description and systematics, are all dependent upon characterization of the ...
