Exposing the Barcoding Void: An Integrative Approach to Study Snail-Borne Parasites in a One Health Context

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Trematodes are snail-borne parasites of major zoonotic importance that infect millions of people and animals worldwide and frequently hybridize with closely related species.

Does nocturnal light pollution impair immune function in a wild‐living amphibian?

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Light pollution is among the most rapidly growing anthropogenic stressors on Earth. As it spreads far beyond its original source, it affects natural protected areas playing a key role in protecting biodiversity.

Reinfection of dogs with fish-borne zoonotic trematodes in northern Vietnam following a single treatment with praziquantel. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BACKGROUND: Fish-borne zoonotic trematodes (FZT) infections including liver- and minute intestinal flukes are common in Southeast Asia in both humans and domestic animals eating raw fish and since 2010, the liver flukes are recognised as neglected ...

Molecular detection of parasites (Trematoda, Digenea: Bucephalidae and Monorchiidae) in the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis (Mollusca: Bivalvia) [PDF]

, 2018
Members of the globally distributed bivalve family Ostreidae (oysters) have a significant role in marine ecosystems and include species of high economic importance. In this work, we report the occurrence of digenean parasites of the families Bucephalidae

Many roads to reservoirs? How susceptibility and shedding shape host competence in amphibians

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Update on trematode infections in sheep [PDF]

Veterinary Parasitology, 2012
Trematode parasites live in the liver, fore stomachs or blood vessels of a wide range of animals and humans. Most of them have a special economic and veterinary significance. Liver fluke disease of sheep and other animal species is caused by the common liver fluke Fasciola hepatica.

Individual identification of bony fishes using unique body markings: Implications and applications

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The natural variation in animal body markings, such as spots, stripes and blotches, offers a powerful tool for researchers, conservationists, citizen scientists and resource managers to distinguish specific individuals within species. By building libraries of photo‐identified individuals, we can track and differentiate individuals over time ...

Helminth and intestinal protozoa infections, multiparasitism and risk factors in Champasack province, Lao People's Democratic Republic.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2011
BackgroundDetailed investigations of multiparasitism are scarce in the Mekong River basin. We assessed helminth (trematode, nematode, and cestode), and intestinal protozoa infections, and multiparasitism in random population samples from three different ...
