Two different strategies of host manipulation allow parasites to persist in intermediate–definitive host systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, 2018
AbstractTrophically transmitted parasites start their development in an intermediate host, before they finish the development in their definitive host when the definitive host preys on the intermediate host. In intermediate–definitive host systems, two strategies of host manipulation have been evolved: increasing the rate of transmission to the ...

Observations onEchinococcus multilocularis in the definitive host

Zeitschrift f�r Parasitenkunde Parasitology Research, 1983
Six dogs were found to be susceptible to experimental infections with a European isolate of Echinococcus multilocularis from southern Germany. Two cats were only poorly susceptible. Adult worms were not evenly distributed throughout the small intestine and the majority of parasites were found in the posterior region.

Confirmation that the dog is a definitive host for Neospora caninum

Veterinary Parasitology, 1999
Two mixed-breed littermate dogs were fed mouse brains containing tissue cysts of the NC-beef isolate of Neospora caninum. Both dogs excreted N. caninum oocysts in their feces. Dog 1 which was given methylprednisolone acetate (MPA) prior to ingesting tissue cysts, excreted oocysts on days 5 to 10 inclusive and on day 17 after ingesting tissue cysts. Dog

Australian dingoes are definitive hosts of Neospora caninum

International Journal for Parasitology, 2010
To provide objective data on the potential role of dingoes (Canis lupus dingo) in the life cycle of Neospora caninum in Australia, the production of N. caninum oocysts by experimentally infected canids was investigated. Three dingo pups raised in captivity and three domestic dogs were fed tissue from calves infected with an Australian isolate of N ...

Immunology and Pathology of Intestinal Trematodes in Their Definitive Hosts

2006
This review examines the significant literature on the immunology and pathology of intestinal trematodes in their definitive hosts. We emphasize information on selected species in six families for which the literature on these topics is extensive. The families are Brachylaimidae, Diplostomidae, Echinostomatidae, Gymnophallidae, Heterophyidae, and ...
