Species-specific Real Time-PCR primers/probe systems to identify fish parasites of the genera Anisakis, Pseudoterranova and Hysterothylacium (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea) [PDF]
, 2018 Ascaridoid nematodes belonging to the genera Anisakis and Pseudoterranova are heteroxenous parasites, involving marine mammals as definitive hosts in their life-cycles, whereas crustaceans (krill), fish and squids acting as intermediate/paratenic hosts.

Aging-dependent functional alterations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from human fibroblasts transferred into mtDNA-less cells [PDF]
, 1996 To investigate the role that aging-dependent accumulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations plays in the senescence processes, mitochondria from fibroblasts of 21 normal human individuals between 20 weeks (fetal) and 103 years of age were introduced

Sorting mtDNA Species—the Role of nDNA-mtDNA Co-evolution [PDF]
Cell Metabolism, 2019 The segregation of heteroplasmic mtDNA species was thought to be mostly stochastic. However, recent findings, including a study by Latorre-Pellicer et al. (2019) published in this issue of Cell Metabolism, provide evidence that nuclear DNA and mitochondrial DNA interactions play an important role in the sorting process.
