Biotic interactions in soil and dung shape parasite transmission in temperate ruminant systems: An integrative framework

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 3, April 2024.
Abstract Gastrointestinal helminth parasites undergo part of their life cycle outside their host, such that developmental stages interact with the soil and dung fauna. These interactions are capable of affecting parasite transmission on pastures yet are generally ignored in current models, empirical studies and practical management. Dominant methods of

Identification of factors associated with Fasciola hepatica infection risk areas on pastures via an environmental DNA survey of Galba truncatula distribution using droplet digital and quantitative real‐time PCR assays

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
ddPCR‐ and qPCR‐based eDNA assays were developed and applied to survey Galba truncatula on pastureland with the aim of identifying Fasciola hepatica infection risk areas. The likelihood of G. truncatula eDNA presence was lower in habitats that were fully shaded by trees, had black or dark brown soils, and contained deep water pools. The tools developed

Adaptation of Lymnaea fuscus and Radix balthica to Fasciola hepatica through the experimental infection of several successive snail generations

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2014
Background High prevalence of Fasciola hepatica infection (>70%) was noted during several outbreaks before the 2000s in several French farms where Galba truncatula is lacking. Other lymnaeids such as Lymnaea fuscus, L.
