The Calicophoron daubneyi genome provides new insight into mechanisms of feeding, eggshell synthesis and parasite-microbe interactions

BMC Biology
Background The rumen fluke, Calicophoron daubneyi, is the major paramphistome species infecting ruminants within Europe. Adult flukes reside within the rumen where they are in direct contact with a unique collection of microorganisms. Here, we report a 1.

Genome of the human hookworm Necator americanus [PDF]

, 2014
The hookworm Necator americanus is the predominant soil-transmitted human parasite. Adult worms feed on blood in the small intestine, causing iron-deficiency anemia, malnutrition, growth and development stunting in children, and severe morbidity and ...

Characterization of the Schistosoma transcriptome opens up the world of helminth genomics.

Genome biology, 2004
Among the metazoan parasites that cause debilitating disease in man, schistosomes are the first group for which near-complete transcriptome complements have been described. This new genomic information will have an enormous impact on all future investigations into the biology, pathogenesis and control of schistosomiasis.

Differences in constitutive gene expression of cytochrome P450 enzymes and ATP-binding cassette transporter gene expression between a susceptible and a highly macrocyclic lactone-resistant Haemonchus contortus isolate in the absence of drug-inducible expression

Parasites & Vectors
Background Anthelmintic resistance in ruminants is a widespread problem that has a severe impact on productivity and animal welfare. The helminth Haemonchus contortus is generally considered the most important parasite in small ruminants due to its high ...

Comparison of multi-parallel quantitative real-time PCRs targeting different DNA regions and detecting soil-transmitted helminths in stool

Parasites & Vectors
Background Soil-transmitted helminths infect an estimated 18% of the world’s population, causing a significant health burden. Microscopy has been the primary tool for diagnosing eggs from fecal samples, but its sensitivity drops in low-prevalence ...
