Trapped between food, heat, and insects: Movement of moose (Alces alces) and exposure to flies in the boreal forest of Alaska

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
Warm summer temperatures cause moose to trade‐off foraging in fly sparse‐habitats for resting and dissipating heat in shady, wet habitats preferred by flies that adversely affect the fitness of moose. (Created with BioRender.com). Abstract Moose (Alces alces) in the boreal forest habitats of Alaska are unlike other northern ungulates because they ...

The therapeutic potential of the filarial nematode-derived immunodulator, ES-62 in inflammatory disease [PDF]

, 2010
The dramatic recent rise in the incidence of allergic or autoimmune inflammatory diseases in the West has been proposed to reflect the lack of appropriate priming of the immune response by infectious agents such as parasitic worms during childhood ...

Onchocerca lupiNematode in Cat, Portugal

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
To the Editor: Onchocerca lupi (Spirurida, Onchocercidae) is a nematode that infects the ocular tissues of dogs and humans. This filarioid remained almost unknown until recently, when it was reported in dogs from Europe and North America (1–3). O. lupi was also detected in 2 cats from the United States (4), which suggests that not only canids but also ...

Synthesizing environmental, epidemiological and vector and parasite genetic data to assist decision making for disease elimination

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 11, June 2024.
Abstract We present a framework for identifying when conditions are favourable for transmission of vector‐borne diseases between communities by incorporating predicted disease prevalence mapping with landscape analysis of sociological, environmental and host/parasite genetic data.
