Technological Parasitism [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Technological parasitism is a new theory to explain the evolution of technology in society. In this context, this study proposes a model to analyze the interaction between a host technology (system) and a parasitic technology (subsystem) to explain evolutionary pathways of technologies as complex systems.

The Leishmania donovani LDBPK_220120.1 Gene Encodes for an Atypical Dual Specificity Lipid-Like Phosphatase Expressed in Promastigotes and Amastigotes; Substrate Specificity, Intracellular Localizations, and Putative Role(s)

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
The intracellular protozoan parasites of the Leishmania genus are responsible for Leishmaniases, vector borne diseases with a wide range of clinical manifestations.

Effect of natural enemies on the invasion of the exotic plant buffalobur (Solanum rostratum Dunal.) in the arid oasis of Urumqi

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Studying the interspecific relationships of exotic species can provide an important theoretical basis for revealing the invasion processes of exotic species, predicting the scope and harm of proliferation, and, subsequently, suggesting reasonable ...

Resource availability and parasitism intensity influence the response of soybean to the parasitic plant Cuscuta australis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionParasitic plants can damage crop plants and consequently cause yield losses and thus threaten food security. Resource availability (e.g., phosphorus, water) has an important role in the response of crop plants to biotic attacks.

Annual and Seasonal Changes in Parasitism Rates by Hadronotus Pennsylvanicus (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on the Squash Bug Anasa Tristis (Hemiptera: Coreidae) in Squash Fields: Implications for Augmentative Releases

Insects, 2022
This study evaluated parasitism rates by Hadronotus pennsylvanicus (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on the squash bug Anasa tristis DeGeer (Hemiptera: Coreidae) over a six-year period in squash fields in Maryland. From 2016–2021, 2226 wild squash bug

Response to selection for parasitism of a suboptimal, low‐preference host in an aphid parasitoid

Evolutionary Applications, 2021
Risks of postintroduction evolution in insects introduced to control invasive pests have been discussed for some time, but little is known about responses to selection or genetic architectures of host adaptation and thus about the likelihood or rapidity ...

Data set for the proteomics analysis of the endomembrane system from the unicellular Entamoeba histolytica

Data in Brief, 2014
Entamoeba histolytica is the protozoan parasite agent of amebiasis, an infectious disease of the human intestine and liver. This parasite contact and kills human cells by an active process involving pathogenic factors.

Measurement of Acid Ecto-phosphatase Activity in Live Leishmania donovani Parasites

Bio-Protocol, 2019
Acid ecto-phosphatases are enzymes that hydrolyze phosphomonoesters in the acidic pH range with their active sites facing the extacellular medium. Their activities can be measured in living cells.
