Biotic interactions in soil and dung shape parasite transmission in temperate ruminant systems: An integrative framework

Ecological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 3, April 2024.
Abstract Gastrointestinal helminth parasites undergo part of their life cycle outside their host, such that developmental stages interact with the soil and dung fauna. These interactions are capable of affecting parasite transmission on pastures yet are generally ignored in current models, empirical studies and practical management. Dominant methods of

Scanning electron microscopic observations on the tegumental surfaces of two rumen flukes (Trematoda: Paramphistomata) [PDF]

Journal of Helminthology, 1982
ABSTRACTThe surface microtopography ofCalicophoron papillosum(Stiles & Goldberger) andC. calicophorum(Fischoeder), inhabiting the rumen of sheep, has been studied by SEM. InC. papillosum, conspicuous transverse ridges encircle the mid-body, gradually lessening dorsally towards the posterior end.

Identification of factors associated with Fasciola hepatica infection risk areas on pastures via an environmental DNA survey of Galba truncatula distribution using droplet digital and quantitative real‐time PCR assays

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
ddPCR‐ and qPCR‐based eDNA assays were developed and applied to survey Galba truncatula on pastureland with the aim of identifying Fasciola hepatica infection risk areas. The likelihood of G. truncatula eDNA presence was lower in habitats that were fully shaded by trees, had black or dark brown soils, and contained deep water pools. The tools developed

Prevalence and Associated Risk Factors of Gastrointestinal Parasite Infections among Meat Goats in Khon Kaen Thailand

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
This study investigated the epidemiology of gastrointestinal (GI) parasite infections among 42 meat goat herds in Khon Kaen, Northeast Thailand, based on 913 fecal samples. The predominant parasites identified in the herd were strongyle (100.0%, 42/42), Trichuris spp. (73.8%, 31/42), Eimeria spp. (66.7%, 28/42), Moniezia spp.
