Paramphistomum daubneyi: characteristics of infection in three lymnaeid species [PDF]

Parasite, 2012
Experimental infections of two South American lymnaeids (Lymnaea neotropica and L. viatrix var. ventricosa) with Paramphistomum daubneyi were carried out to determine if these snail species could sustain larval development of this digenean and, if so, to

Intermediate host recognition abilities of Fasciola hepatica miracidia [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background Fasciola hepatica, the causative agent of fascioliasis in sheep and cattle, requires a compatible snail intermediate host to complete its life cycle.

Adaptation of Lymnaea fuscus and Radix balthica to Fasciola hepatica through the experimental infection of several successive snail generations [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background High prevalence of Fasciola hepatica infection (>70%) was noted during several outbreaks before the 2000s in several French farms where Galba truncatula is lacking. Other lymnaeids such as Lymnaea fuscus, L.

Dynamics of haemocytes from Pseudosuccinea columella circulating infected by Fasciola hepatica

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Parasitology, 2017
The lymnaeids are important in the epidemiology of Fasciola hepatica, a neglected and endemic zoonosis. The interaction between the internal defense system of Pseudosuccinea columella and F. hepatica has been little studied.

Insights into the relationships of Palearctic and Nearctic lymnaeids (Mollusca : Gastropoda) by rDNA ITS-2 sequencing and phylogeny of stagnicoline intermediate host species ofFasciola hepatica

Parasite, 2003
Fascioliasis by Fasciola hepatica is the vector-borne disease presenting the widest latitudinal, longitudinal and altitudinal distribution known. F. hepatica shows a great adaptation power to new environmental conditions which is the consequence of its ...

Assessment of genetic markers for multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of Fasciola isolates from Iran

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 924-933, March 2023., 2023
MLST analysis was developed based on five genes (ND1, Pepck, Pold, Cyt b and HSP70) after genomic DNA extraction, amplification and sequencing. Thirty‐three Fasciola isolates (19 F. hepatica and 14 F. gigantica) were obtained from the infected livers (sheep n = 16, cattle n = 48 and goat n = 4) in Kermanshah Province, Iran.

One Health initiative in the Bolivian Altiplano human fascioliasis hyperendemic area: Lymnaeid biology, population dynamics, microecology and climatic factor influences

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2021
Fascioliasis is a freshwater snail-borne zoonotic disease. The Northern Bolivian Altiplano is a very high altitude endemic area where the highest human prevalences and intensities have been reported.

A large‐scale epidemiological investigation on trematode infections in small ruminants in Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 1219-1228, May 2022., 2022
In Bangladesh, nearly 40% small ruminants were infected with snail borne trematodes (SBT). Small ruminants were usually affected by a variety of SBT. Three potential factors were detected as risk factors for SBT infections in small ruminants. Abstract Background The important trematode species in small ruminants: Paramphistomum sp., Fasciola spp.

A comprehensive phylogeography of the widespread pond snail genus Radix revealed restricted colonization due to niche conservatism

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 18446-18459, December 2021., 2021
To clarify the effect of niche conservatism on evolutionary history, we conducted a comprehensive phylogeography and estimation of dispersal routes. As a results, niche conservatism can affect the diversification of freshwater snails, genus Radix. Abstract To clarify the effect of niche conservatism on evolutionary history, we focused on freshwater ...
