Enrichment of Helminth Mitochondrial Genomes From Faecal Samples Using Hybridisation Capture
ABSTRACT New approaches are urgently needed to enrich rare or low‐abundant DNA in complex samples. Soil‐transmitted helminths (STHs) inhabit heterogeneous environments, including the gastrointestinal tract of their host as adults and are excreted as eggs and larvae in faeces, complicating our understanding of their biology and the use of genetic tools ...

The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.
