The genetic diversity of Oncomelania hupensis robertsoni, intermediate hosts of Schistosoma japonicum in hilly regions of China, using microsatellite markers

Parasites & Vectors
 Background The elimination of schistosomiasis remains a challenging task, with current measures primarily focused on the monitoring and control of Oncomelania hupensis (O. hupensis) snail, the sole intermediate host of Schistosome japonicum.

Phylogenetic analysis of avian schistosome Trichobilharzia regenti (Schistosomatidae, Digenea) from naturally infected hosts in northern Iran

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 5, Page 2359-2367, September 2023., 2023
This article demonstrates new information about the current status of Trichobilharzia species in infected ducks and snails in the aquaculture areas of Mazandaran Province in northern Iran. The new genotype of Trichobilharzia cf. regenti is circulating between migratory and domestic ducks in the study areas.

Target‐capture probes for phylogenomics of the Caenogastropoda

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1372-1388, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Target‐capture approaches have facilitated a rapid growth in the field of phylogenomics but few probe sets exist for molluscs, an exceptionally rich phylum with unparalleled ecological and morphological diversity. We designed and tested the first universal probe set using Phyluce to capture ultraconserved elements (UCEs) and exon loci from the

Dyke demolition led to a sharp decline in waterbird diversity due to habitat quality reduction: A case study of Dongting Lake, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
Dyke demolition led to a sharp decline in waterbird diversity at the community, foraging guilds, and species levels. Habitat changes caused by dyke demolition were responsible for the changes in waterbird diversity. Abstract Dongting Lake, an important wintering habitat for migratory waterbirds in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, has suffered ...

Effects of Spartina alterniflora invasion on the benthic invertebrate community in intertidal wetlands

Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Exotic species invasions have profound effects on native ecosystems, with the ecological effects of non‐native plants being especially pervasive. We investigated the impacts of a plant invasion on benthic invertebrate assemblages in intertidal wetlands of the Yellow River Delta, comparing benthic communities associated with exotic Spartina ...

Transcriptional profiling of Microtus fortis responses to S. japonicum: New sight into Mf‐Hsp90α resistance mechanism

Parasite Immunology, Volume 43, Issue 8, August 2021., 2021
Abstract Aims Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease with a chronic debilitating character caused by parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. The main disease‐causing species of Schistosoma in China is S. japonicum. M fortis has been proved to be a nonpermissive host of S. japonicum.
