| diversity of the helminth community of the pampean grassland mouse ( akodon azarae) on poultry farms in central argentina. | this paper describes the helminth community of the pampean grassland mouse (akodon azarae) inhabiting poultry farms in central argentina. winter diversity (season of high rodent abundance) has been compared to spring diversity (season of low rodent abundance). species richness was seven in both seasons: five nematodes (syphacia carlitosi, stilestrongylus spp., trichuris laevitestis, pterygodermatites (paucipectines) azarai and protospirura numidica criceticola) and two cestodes (adults of cyclop ... | 2011 | 21324218 |
| intrinsic and extrinsic factors related to pathogen infection in wild small mammals in intensive milk cattle and swine production systems. | understanding the ecological processes that are involved in the transmission of zoonotic pathogens by small mammals may aid adequate and effective management measures. few attempts have been made to analyze the ecological aspects that influence pathogen infection in small mammals in livestock production systems. we describe the infection of small mammals with leptospira spp., brucella spp., trichinella spp. and cysticercus fasciolaris and assess the related intrinsic and extrinsic factors in liv ... | 2017 | 28665952 |
