A modeling study of the impact of treatment policies on the evolution of resistance in sea lice on salmon farms [PDF]
, 2023 Salmonid aquaculture is an important source of nutritious food with more than 2 million tonnes of fish produced each year. In most salmon producing countries, sea lice represent a major barrier to the sustainability of salmonid aquaculture. This issue is

Precision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.Breast cancer subtypes, estrogen receptor‐positive (ER+), HER2‐enriched, and TNBC, are defined by genomic and epigenetic signatures. Multi‐omics profiling, immunotherapy, liquid biopsy, and AI‐driven radiogenomics enable precision medicine. Tools like Oncotype DX and PAM50 support personalized care.

Detection of bacterial pathogens in clade E head lice collected from Niger’s refugees in Algeria
Parasites & Vectors, 2018 Background Head lice, Pediculus humanus capitis, are obligate blood-sucking parasites. Phylogenetically, they occur in five divergent mitochondrial clades (A, D, B, C and E), each having a particular geographical distribution.

Evidence for an African cluster of human head and body lice with variable colors and interbreeding of lice between continents. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Human head lice and body lice have been classified based on phenotypic characteristics, including geographical source, ecotype (preferred egg laying site hair or clothes), shape and color.

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

The effectiveness of hyposaline treatments against host-attached salmon lice [PDF]
, 2019 Understanding how salinity affects marine parasites is vital to understanding their ecology and treatment, particularly for host-parasite systems that traverse marine and freshwater realms such as the globally important Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar ...

Inventory of lice of mammals and farmyard chicken in North-eastern Algeria [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2018 Background and Aim: Lice are permanent ectoparasites, extremely specific to their hosts. Their great importance in veterinary medicine remain significant, they can cause their direct pathogenic actions like irritability, dermatitis, anemia, decreased ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.Strict patterns of co‐divergence have rarely been documented other than among organisms and their symbionts. In this paper, using a molecular approach, we inferr the population‐level phylogenies of a Mediterranean ant species Pheidole pallidula and its nest parasite, the obligate myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri. We then investigate the role of co‐

Comparative tests of ectoparasite species richness in seabirds [PDF]
, 2007 Background: The diversity of parasites attacking a host varies substantially among different host species. Understanding the factors that explain these patterns of parasite diversity is critical to identifying the ecological principles underlying ...
