Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Prions in Muscles of Cervids with Chronic Wasting Disease, Norway

Emerging Infectious Diseases
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is an emerging prion disease in Nordic countries and has been detected in reindeer, moose, and red deer since 2016. CWD sporadically detected in moose and red deer in 3 Nordic countries demonstrated pathologic and strain ...

Reproduction of cervids

, 1989
Les principales caractéristiques de la fonction de reproduction des cervidés ainsi que son contrôle par différents facteurs de l’environnement sont présentés dans cette étude bibliographique. Sous les latitudes moyennes et élevées, les cervidés originaires de ces latitudes ont un cycle saisonnier très marqué de la reproduction et il y a synchronisme ...

Molecular and morphological characterization of Echinococcus in cervids from North America

, 2006
Many issues concerning the taxonomy of Echinococcus have been resolved in recent years with the application of molecular tools. However, the status of Echinococcus maintained in transmission cycles involving cervid intermediate hosts remains to be ...

Diversity, population structure and palaeoecology of the Pleistocene large cervids from the Padang Highlands, Sumatra [PDF]

This chapter deals with the dentognathic remains of the Late Pleistocene large cervids from the Padang Highlands caves in Sumatra. We used linear and geometric morphometric techniques to investigate variation, taxonomic position and body size trends in a

Chronic Wasting Disease in Free-Ranging North American Cervids [PDF]

, 2006
Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) was first described in captive mule deer in a Colorado research facility in 1967 and subsequently classified as a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy in 1978.

The prevalence, abundance, and molecular characterization of Lipoptena deer keds from cervids

, 2021
The objectives of this study were to investigate the prevalence and abundance of deer keds on various cervids in Lithuania, to molecularly characterize the deer ked species based on mitochondrial COI and 16S rRNA genes, and to compare them with Lipoptena

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
