Speciation and adaptive evolution reshape antioxidant enzymatic system diversity across the phylum Nematoda

BMC Biology, 2020
Background Nematodes have evolved to survive in diverse ecological niches and can be a serious burden on agricultural economy, veterinary medicine, and public health.

Evolution of parasitism genes in the plant parasitic nematodes. [PDF]

Sci Rep
AbstractThe plant-parasitic nematodes are considered as one of the most destructive pests, from which the migratory and sedentary endoparasitic plant parasitic nematodes infect more than 4000 plant species and cause over $100 billion crop losses annually worldwide.

Molecular diagnosis of parasitic nematodes

Parasitology, 1999
There is an essential requirement for highly sensitive tools that will differentiate nematode parasites of animals and plants to the species level. For studying host range, genetic variation, virulence and resistance, the availability of well defined populations is vital.

AI‐Assisted Morphometric Analysis and Molecular Phylogeny for a Dactylogyrid (Monopisthocotyla) Skin Parasite of an Ornamental Crenuchid Fish From Brazil

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a formal description and taxonomic appraisal of Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n., a Neotropical parasite belonging to the family Dactylogyridae, integrating AI‐assisted morphometric analyses, molecular data, and phylogenetic reconstruction. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n.

Fumigant and Non-Fumigant Nematicides Labeled for Agronomic Crops in Florida

EDIS, 2017
Plant-parasitic nematodes can cause severe yield loss of agronomic crops in Florida. Chemical products for managing plant-parasitic nematodes are called nematicides.

Diversity of Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp. and their symbiotic entomopathogenic nematodes from Thailand [PDF]

, 2012
Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp. are bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). In this study, we isolated and characterized Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp.

Rearing Istocheta aldrichi (Diptera: Tachinidae) From Field‐Collected Japanese Beetles (Popillia japonica): 1. Methods to Improve Insect Collection and Parasitoid Pupariation

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We describe methods for collecting and rearing the tachinid parasitoid Istocheta aldrichi from parasitized Japanese beetle adults. Hosts can be collected by hand and reared in the laboratory, or by using modified trap containers with added plant material and substrate to provide suitable conditions for I.

The genomic basis of nematode parasitism [PDF]

Briefings in Functional Genomics, 2017
Nematodes are highly abundant animals, and many species have a parasitic lifestyle. Nematode parasites are important pathogens of humans and other animals, and there is considerable interest in understanding their molecular and genomic adaptations to nematode parasitism.

Rearing Istocheta aldrichi (Diptera: Tachinidae) From Field‐Collected Japanese Beetles (Popillia japonica): 2. Methods to Improve Overwintering, Adult Emergence and Longevity

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Successful rearing of Istocheta aldrichi, a tachinid parasitoid of invasive Japanese beetle, depended on conditions before, during, and after overwintering. Longer cold exposure increased adult emergence and accelerated post‐diapause development. Early transfer of puparia to cool conditions improved survival, while spring temperature manipulation ...

The Developmental Biology of Parasitic Nematodes

PLOS Pathogens, 2016
My research focuses on understanding the factors that regulate the development of parasitic nematodes (roundworms) during the infective process, in which their larvae pass from the external environment into mammalian hosts, including humans. This research matters because these factors are essential to the survival of a group of pathogenic organisms ...
