Metabarcoding options to study eukaryotic endoparasites of birds
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 16, Page 10821-10833, August 2021., 2021 Parasites of birds are extremely diverse, spanning no less than four different kingdoms (Chromista, Protozoa, Metazoa and Fungi). Our understanding of these communities and their fascinating interactions could benefit from metabarcoding approaches. This report provides a side‐by‐side comparison of different metabarcoding options for a broad description

Zoo Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 59-64, January/February 2021., 2021 Pterygodermatites nycticebi adult nematode stages were observed after stress‐induced defecation of infected primates. After necropsy, adult Pterygodermatites spp. were identified in histopathological samples of intestine and pancreas. Third‐stage larvae of Pterygodermatites spp.

Parasite infections in a social carnivore: Evidence of their fitness consequences and factors modulating infection load [PDF]
, 2019 There are substantial individual differences in parasite composition and infection load in wildlife populations. Few studies have investigated the factors shaping this heterogeneity in large wild mammals or the impact of parasite infections on Darwinian ...
