Population genetics of ectoparasitic mites Varroa spp. in Eastern and Western honey bees
Parasitology, 2019 Host shifts of parasites are often causing devastating effects in the new hosts. The Varroa genus is known for a lineage of Varroa destructor that shifted to the Western honey bee, Apis mellifera, with disastrous effects on wild populations and the ...

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 1323-1334, October 2025.Abstract A natural parasitic infection with the external ciliate protozoan, Chilodonella hexasticha, was recorded 3 days post‐transportation (PT) in the gills and skin of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Infected fish displayed behavioural changes and typical signs of infection.

Prevalence of ectoparasite infestations in owned dogs in Kwara State, Nigeria
Parasite Epidemiology and Control, 2019 In Nigeria, dogs are the common companions in many households and, harbor wide range of ectoparasites of severe zoonotic potentials. A cross sectional survey was conducted to examine the prevalence, intensity and risk factors of ectoparasite infestation ...

Journal of Zoology, Volume 327, Issue 2, Page 123-133, October 2025.Parthenogenic hybrid populations often have differing morphological, physiological, and ecological traits from their parent populations, which alongside clonal reproduction contribute to increased fitness. However, slowed rates of co‐evolution can reduce parthenogens' capacity to outpace parasites, resulting in higher rates of parasitism.

Mate limitation in sea lice infesting wild salmon hosts : the influence of parasite sex ratio and aggregation [PDF]
, 2017 Mate limitation in dioecious parasite species has the potential to impact parasite population growth. Our focus of interest was the influence of parasite sex distribution among hosts on parasite reproduction and transmission dynamics for populations of ...

Honey bee predisposition of resistance to ubiquitous mite infestations
Scientific Reports, 2019 Host-parasite co-evolution history is lacking when parasites switch to novel hosts. This was the case for Western honey bees (Apis mellifera) when the ectoparasitic mite, Varroa destructor, switched hosts from Eastern honey bees (Apis cerana).

Mammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 4, October 2025.Disease risk assessment was conducted for the Saving Wildcats reintroduction project of captive‐bred European Wildcats (Felis silvestris) to the Cairngorms National Park. Hazards were identified, and appropriate pre‐and post‐release mitigation strategies were identified and implemented, illustrating the direct conservation application and significance ...
