Genome-Wide Analyses of Individual Strongyloides stercoralis (Nematoda: Rhabditoidea) Provide Insights into Population Structure and Reproductive Life Cycles [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016 The helminth Strongyloides stercoralis, which is transmitted through soil, infects 30-100 million people worldwide. S. stercoralis reproduces sexually outside the host as well as asexually within the host, which causes a life-long infection.

Ultrastructural Description of Amphid Neurons in the Pine Wood Nematode Indicates Concurrent Evolution of the Stylet and Specific Neurons. [PDF]
J Comp NeurolNematodes possess simple nervous systems yet show broad ecological diversity. In the fungal‐feeding plant‐parasitic nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, we identified type V neurons in the amphid. These neurons, likely associated with the stylet, have trifurcated cilia and may have a potential mechanosensory role in triggering stylet‐thrusting behavior

The Expansion of Animal MicroRNA Families Revisited [PDF]
Life, 2015 MicroRNAs are important regulatory small RNAs in many eukaryotes. Due to their small size and simple structure, they are readily innovated de novo. Throughout the evolution of animals, the emergence of novel microRNA families traces key morphological ...
