Helminth genomics: from gene discovery to genome sequencing
Trends in Parasitology, 2002Abstract A joint meeting of the World Health Organisation-funded Schistosome and Filarial Genome Networks was held at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR, Rockville, MD, USA) from 10th to 12th January 2002.

Resequencing Helminth Genomes for Population and Genetic Studies
Trends in Parasitology, 2017Next-generation sequencing has become increasingly accessible and economical, making genome-wide studies routine for many species, including humans, model organisms, and domestic livestock. However, in the case of helminth parasites, there are still major practical challenges to the application of these approaches for genetic and population studies ...

Estimating the number of breeders from helminth larvae with genomic data
2023AbstractEffective control of helminth infections requires the application of mathematical models to inform control efforts and policy, the development of product profiles for new drugs, and the monitoring of existing drugs for resistance. Key to the success of these approaches is accurately estimating the number of worms within a host, as well as ...

Sequencing and Annotation of Mitochondrial Genomes from Individual Parasitic Helminths
2014Mitochondrial (mt) genomics has significant implications in a range of fundamental areas of parasitology, including evolution, systematics, and population genetics as well as explorations of mt biochemistry, physiology, and function. Mt genomes also provide a rich source of markers to aid molecular epidemiological and ecological studies of key ...

Producing parasitic helminth reference and draft genomes at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute
Parasite Immunology, 2012SummaryThe Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (WTSI) is producing de novo reference quality genomes for parasitic helminth species from platyhelminth tapeworms (cestodes), flukes (trematodes) and roundworms (nematodes) primarily using second‐generation (Illumina and 454) sequencing technologies.

Functional Genomics Tools for Haemonchus contortus and Lessons From Other Helminths
2016The availability of genome and transcriptome data for parasitic nematodes, including Haemonchus contortus, has highlighted the need to develop functional genomics tools. Comparative genomic analysis, particularly using data from the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, can help predict gene function.

Using WormBase ParaSite: An Integrated Platform for Exploring Helminth Genomic Data
2018WormBase ParaSite ( parasite.wormbase.org ) is a comprehensive resource for the genomes of parasitic nematodes and flatworms (helminths). It currently includes genomic data for over 100 helminth species, adding value by way of consistent functional annotation, gene comparative analysis and gene expression analysis.

Parasitology Research, 2015
Hymenolepis nana, commonly known as the dwarf tapeworm, is one of the most common tapeworms of humans and rodents and can cause hymenolepiasis. Although this zoonotic tapeworm is of socio-economic significance in many countries of the world, its genetics, systematics, epidemiology, and biology are poorly understood.

Exploring mitochondrial (mt) genomes has significant implications for various fundamental research areas, including mt biochemistry and physiology, and, importantly, such genomes provide a rich source of markers for population genetics and systematic studies. Although some progress has been made, there is a paucity of information on mt genomes for many

To date, over 100 complete metazoan mitochondrial (mt) genomes of different phyla have been reported. Here, we briefly summarise mt gene organisation in the Metazoa and review what is known of the mt genomes of nematodes and flatworms parasitic in humans.
