Schistosoma Species and Hybrid Genotyping With a Field Deployable Multi‐Marker Amplicon Panel
Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Schistosomes are parasitic trematode worms of the genus Schistosoma, responsible for causing urogenital and intestinal schistosomiasis. Six primary species infect humans: S. mansoni, S. japonicum, S. mekongi, S. intercalatum, S. guineensis, and S. haematobium. In addition, several species including S. bovis, S. curassoni, and S.

Fascioliasis: An Ongoing Zoonotic Trematode Infection [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2015 Zoonotic trematode infections are an area of the neglected tropical diseases that have become of major interest to global and public health due to their associated morbidity. Human fascioliasis is a trematode zoonosis of interest in public health. It affects approximately 50 million people worldwide and over 180 million are at risk of infection in both

Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background Trematode communities often consist of different species exploiting the same host population, with two or more trematodes sometimes co-occuring in the same host. A commonly used diagnostic method to detect larval trematode infections in snails

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Emerging infectious diseases increasingly threaten giant pandas and cohabiting species. This review analyzes pathogen transmission risks from domestic animals, wildlife, and vectors and proposes an integrated genomic surveillance framework for early warning and biodiversity conservation.

High prevalence of zoonotic trematodes in roach (Rutilus rutilus) in the Gulf of Finland
Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2017 The intention to increase roach (Rutilus rutilus) consumption is in focus for ecological and economic reasons in Finland. However, its safety as food has not been considered comprehensively.

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 551-568, March 2026.Abstract Understanding the frequency and socio‐ecological drivers of contacts between humans and non‐human primates (NHPs) is crucial for enhancing coexistence that favours NHP conservation, while limiting negative consequences such as aggressions and cross‐species disease transmission.

Many roads to reservoirs? How susceptibility and shedding shape host competence in amphibians
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 585-598, March 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host competence—the ability to acquire, harbour and transmit infections—drives pathogen spread and persistence in multi‐host communities. Evaluating species‐specific competence is critical for predicting transmission, particularly for generalist fungal pathogens like ...
