Local environment and sampling bias drive parasite prevalence estimates in freshwater fish communities

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 7, July 2025.
Parasite occurrence and infection estimates vary through time and space, making understanding the underlying drivers highly complex. Comparative studies based on empirical data must consider the factors of variation involved in estimating infection metrics in natural populations to make appropriate and reliable comparisons. Using a multi‐scale approach,

In vitro cultivation of Gymnophalloides seoi metacercariae (Digenea:Gymnophallidae)

The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 1997
Gymnophalloides seoi is a human intestinal trematode prevalent on southwestern islands in Korea. In the present study, we investigated whether G. seoi metacercariae can grow and develop into adults by in vitro cultivation. The metacercariae were obtained from naturally infected oysters, and cultured in vitro for 5 days under three conditions; 37 ...

Surface ultrastructure of Metagonimus takahashii metacercariae and adults [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2000
A scanning electron microscopic study was performed on the surface ultrastructure of metacercariae and adults of Metagonimus takahashii. Metacercariae were collected from the scale of crucian carp (Carassius auratus), and adult flukes were harvested 1-4 weeks after infection to rats.

Acclimation temperature and parasite infection drive metabolic changes in a freshwater fish at different biological scales

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 350-361, February 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Environmental stressors such as elevated temperature and parasite infection can impact individual energy metabolism. However, organismal responses to co‐occurring stressors and their effects across biological scales remain unexplored despite the importance of ...
