FEC Check: Development of a decision support tool to aid interpretation of gastrointestinal nematode faecal egg counts in sheep

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gastrointestinal nematode infections are ubiquitous in grazing livestock worldwide impacting animal health and production. Faecal egg count (FEC) is an accessible diagnostic test that can guide the need for treatment. However, interpretation of FECs can be challenging.

Chemical signals synchronize the life cycles of a plant-parasitic nematode and its vector beetle.

Current Biology, 2013
The pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus has caused severe damage to pine forests in large parts of the world [1-4]. Dispersal of this plant-parasitic nematode occurs when the nematode develops into the dispersal fourth larval stage (LIV) upon ...

Spring sampling not recommended for most corn nematodes [PDF]

, 2007
Plant-parasitic nematodes can damage corn, and several instances of this are discovered each year in Iowa. More frequent cropping of corn following corn and less frequent use of soil-applied insecticides, which may have provided some nematode control in ...

Abundant variation in microsatellites of the parasitic nematode Trichostrongylus tenuis and linkage to a tandem repeat [PDF]

, 2006
An understanding of how genes move between and within populations of parasitic nematodes is important in combating the evolution and spread of anthelmintic resistance.

Risk factors for bark stripping damage on Norway spruce by red deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Norway spruce Picea abies is an economically important tree species in Europe, actively managed for forestry. Among the most negative biotic factors for growth and hence forest production is damage caused by wildlife, such as damage through bark stripping by red deer Cervus elaphus.

The role of Bacillus species in the management of plant-parasitic nematodes

Frontiers in Microbiology
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs), including root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), cyst nematodes (Heterodera and Globodera spp.), and other economically significant nematode species, pose severe threats to global agriculture.

Sintra-root system heterogeneity of Radopholus similis population dynamics on bananas, a modelling approach [PDF]

, 2009
At the plant scale, the heterogeneity of pest populations have long time been ignored. Concerning plant-parasitic nematodes, there is strong evidence that these populations could be highly heterogeneous in space, mostly due to their low dispersal ...

Conserved nematode signalling molecules elicit plant defenses and pathogen resistance [PDF]

, 2015
Plant-defense responses are triggered by perception of conserved microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs), for example, flagellin or peptidoglycan.

Heating up parasitoid–host interactions: High temperature increased mortality of late‐instar braconid larvae and reduced ladybird recovery rate

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract With ongoing climate change, temperature‐dependent outcomes of host–parasitoid interactions can affect ecosystem functioning and key ecosystem services such as biological control. However, most studies addressing the impacts of temperature on host–parasitoid systems are

In vitro effects of three woody plant and sainfoin extracts on two parasitic stage of 3 parasitic nematode species [PDF]

, 2004
Most studies on the effects of tanniferous plants on nematodes have examined forages but have neglected the woody plants. Therefore, in vitro effects of extracts from 3 woody plants (Rubus fructicosus, Quercus robur, Corylus avellana) have been tested on
