[the phenomenon of phylogenetic synhospitality in acariform mites (acari: acariformes)--the permanent parasites of vertebrates]. | the term synhospitality means the association of two or more closely related parasite species with one host species (eichler, 1966). the cases of two or three synhospitalic species are known from the same host species, and especially ones where parasites were recorded from different parts of the host range, are quite common. the most ordinary reason causing synhospitality in permanent parasites is the host switching. nevertheless, there are a number of synhospitality cases, where the parasite co ... | 2008 | 18664065 |
complete mitochondrial genome of endangered socorro conure (aratinga brevipes) - taxonomic position of the species and its relationship with green conure. | socorro conure (aratinga brevipes.aratinga holochlora brevipes) is a parrot endemic to the island of socorro. according to some taxonomists the species is considered a subspecies of green conure (aratinga holochlora). some other classifications treat brevipes as a separate species based on relatively minor morphological differences between both species/subspecies. however, taxonomic position of aratinga brevipes was never determined by molecular research. we sequenced full mitochondrial genome o ... | 2014 | 23815322 |
