Genetic diversity of Entamoeba: Novel ribosomal lineages from cockroaches. [PDF]
Our current taxonomic perspective on Entamoeba is largely based on small-subunit ribosomal RNA genes (SSU rDNA) from Entamoeba species identified in vertebrate hosts with minor exceptions such as E. moshkovskii from sewage water and E. marina from marine

Intestinal Parasites of Zoonotic Significance in Human and Domestic Animals in a Rural Setting in Nepal. [PDF]
Intestinal parasites are shared among humans and domestic animals. Rural setting is critical to enhance parasite zoonosis in Nepal. ABSTRACT Intestinal parasitic (IP) species with zoonotic significance are major public health issues, mostly prevalent in developing countries, leading to high morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to assess the

Gastrointestinal Parasites in Humans and Rhesus Macaques: A Cross-Sectional Study in Bhaktapur, Nepal. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Gastrointestinal parasitism in wild animals at the human‐wildlife interface may be a warning concern both for wildlife health and human health. The current study was conducted to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in humans and rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) in the Nilbarahi area, an area with ...

Increased sampling reveals novel lineages of Entamoeba: consequences of genetic diversity and host specificity for taxonomy and molecular detection. [PDF]
To expand the representation for phylogenetic analysis, ten additional complete Entamoeba small-subunit rRNA gene sequences were obtained from humans, non-human primates, cattle and a tortoise. For some novel sequences no corresponding morphological data
