Age at First Reproduction Predicts Sex‐Specific Parasite Infection Trajectories Through Adulthood

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Age at first reproduction predicted sex‐specific infection trajectories in male but not female shags. Early‐ and modal‐recruiting males showed within‐individual declines in parasite burden with age, whereas late‐recruiting males exhibited progressive increases.

Duddingtonia flagrans in the control of gastrointestinal nematodes of horses

Experimental Parasitology, 2015
Horses can harbor a large amount of parasites that may cause serious clinical signs even death. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predatory activity of the fungus Duddingtonia flagrans against infective larvae (L3) of gastrointestinal nematodes of horses in fecal culture.

Corticosterone Under Experimental Manipulation of Nutrition and Parasite Burden in a Wild Rodent System

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 7, Page 749-758, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental pressures shape survival and life‐history dynamics partly by triggering the release of glucocorticoids, whose short‐term benefits but long‐term costs make it essential to understand what drives their levels. Here, we used an experimental manipulation of two environmental stressors—food availability and parasite burden—to directly

From Oral Candidiasis to Candidemia: A Review of Superficial to Invasive Progression

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Recent and limited evidence indicates that oral candidiasis can disseminate Candida albicans throughout the body, leading to invasive candidiasis, such as candidemia, a life‐threatening infection. Considering antifungal resistance and global outbreaks of emergent non‐albicans Candida and related yeasts, murine models help understand dissemination ...

Phyto-biotherapy to control gastrointestinal nematodes of sheep

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2014
The parasitic resistance and the tendency of recent years to shift to organic systems has resulted in several alternative animal management as the selection of resistant breeds, integration with other animal species, phytotherapy, nematophagous fungi ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

A Sustainable Strategy for Gastrointestinal Nematode Control in Sheep

Veterinary Sciences
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) represent a major constraint to sheep production, and sustainable alternatives to routine anthelmintic use are increasingly required. This study compared two parasite control strategies in Zerasca sheep: routine albendazole treatment administered twice yearly (T) and a long-term non-chemical approach based on rotational

The development of RNA interference (RNAi) in gastrointestinal nematodes

Parasitology, 2012
SUMMARYDespite the utility of RNAi for defining gene function inCaenorhabditis elegansand early successes reported in parasitic nematodes, RNAi has proven to be stubbornly inconsistent or ineffective in the animal parasitic nematodes examined to date.

Sheep enteric cestodes and their influence on clinical indicators used in targeted selective treatments against gastrointestinal nematodes

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2019
Clinical indicators such as diarrhoea (DISCO) or anaemia (FAMACHA©) are used as a measure for targeted selective treatments against gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN).

Efficacy of ِِabamectin in lambs and goats naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes in Mosul city [PDF]

Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2011
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of abamectin in lambs and goats naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes. The study was conducted on 300 lambs, from both sexes, at age ranged between 6-9 months, and 150 native goats from both
