Cestode infections in non-human primates suggest the existence of zoonotic cycles in the area surrounding the Strasbourg primatology center [PDF]
Parasite, 2019 Background: Several cases of infections due to Echinococcus multilocularis, Taenia martis and Taenia crassiceps were recently described in various species of captive non-human primates (NHPs) harbored in the Strasbourg Primate Center (SPC).

Immunodiagnostic and molecular approaches for the detection of taeniid cestode infections.
Trends in Parasitology, 2003 This article summarizes the most recent advances in techniques and applications for the detection of taeniid cestode-infected persons or animals. In addition, the use of molecular approaches for strain identification and control of parasite transmission is discussed.

Evaluating noninvasive methods for estimating cestode prevalence in a wild carnivore population.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Helminth infections are cryptic and can be difficult to study in wildlife species. Helminth research in wildlife hosts has historically required invasive animal handling and necropsy, while results from noninvasive parasite research, like scat analysis ...

Host–gut microbiota interactions shape parasite infections in farmed Atlantic salmon
mSystems, 2023 Animals and their associated microbiota share long evolutionary histories. However, it is not always clear how host genotype and microbiota interact to affect phenotype.

Comparing cestode infections and their consequences for host fitness in two sexual branchiopods: alien Artemia franciscana and native A. salina from syntopic-populations. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 The American brine shrimp Artemia franciscana is invasive in the Mediterranean region where it has displaced native species (the sexual A. salina, and the clonal A. parthenogenetica) from many salt pond complexes.
