Prevalence of gastrointestinal helminth infections in ovine population of Kashmir Valley [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2015 Aim: Gastrointestinal (GI) helminth parasitism is one of the major constraints for profitable sheep production. Due to variations in the prevalence of GI helminths from region to region, it becomes important to map out accurately the parasitic fauna of a

Tissue-specific transcriptome analyses provide new insights into GPCR signalling in adult Schistosoma mansoni. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2018 Schistosomes are blood-dwelling trematodes with global impact on human and animal health. Because medical treatment is currently based on a single drug, praziquantel, there is urgent need for the development of alternative control strategies.

A transcriptomic analysis of Echinococcus granulosus larval stages:implications for parasite biology and host adaptation [PDF]
, 2012 The cestode Echinococcus granulosus--the agent of cystic echinococcosis, a zoonosis affecting humans and domestic animals worldwide--is an excellent model for the study of host-parasite cross-talk that interfaces with two mammalian hosts.
