| a programme to reduce the risk of infection by echinococcus multilocularis: the use of praziquantel to control the cestode in a village in the hyperendemic region of alaska. | this paper reports the results of a 10-year field trial designed to reduce the risk of infection by echinococcus multilocularis to residents of a village in a hyperendemic area (savoonga, st. lawrence island). the objective was to prevent dispersal of infective eggs of the cestode within the village by means of monthly treatments of dogs with praziquantel. northern voles, microtus oeconomus, present in the village as commensals, served as an index of risk, as the incidence of infection in the vo ... | 1990 | 2222026 |

| significant morphological but little molecular differences between trypanosoma of rodents from alaska. | we examined blood smears of 173 rodents and 33 shrews captured at 4 sites in the gates of the arctic national park, northern alaska, in summer 2002. trypanosoma spp. were detected in the plasma of 5 microtus oeconomus, 4 microtus miurus, and 1 lemmus trimucronatus. the trypomastigote morphology from different individuals of m. oeconomus caught at the same site and of m. miurus from different sites varied significantly. the 4 dna sequences obtained from the blood smear positive samples contained ... | 2005 | 15856904 |
| parasite diversity at the holarctic nexus: species of arostrilepis (eucestoda: hymenolepididae) in voles and lemmings (cricetidae: arvicolinae) from greater beringia. | previously unrecognized species of hymenolepidid cestodes attributable to arostrilepis mas-coma & tenora, 1997 in arvicoline rodents from the greater beringian region and western north america are described. discovery and characterization of these tapeworms contributes to the recognition of a complex of cryptic species distributed across the holarctic region. three species are proposed: arostrilepis gulyaevi sp. n. is named for cestodes in myodes rufocanus from the republic of buryatia, southeas ... | 2013 | 24614481 |
| occurrence of a syngamus sp. in tundra voles (microtus oeconomus) collected on st. lawrence island, bering sea. | a species of syngamid nematode belonging to the genus syngamus was found in the respiratory tract (terminal trachea to bronchi) of tundra voles (microtus oeconomus) collected on st. lawrence island, alaska (usa). its prevalence in june 1989 was greater than 29% (12 of 41 male voles and seven of 24 females) in the village of savoonga, while no nematodes were found from 41 voles collected in the village of gambell. lesions included dilatation of parasitized respiratory ducts and peribronchial and ... | 1992 | 1548793 |
| genetic consequences of pleistocene glaciations for the tundra vole (microtus oeconomus) in beringia. | repeated glacial events during the pleistocene fragmented and displaced populations throughout the northern continents. different models of the effects of these climate-driven events predict distinct phylogeographic and population genetic outcomes for high-latitude faunas. the role of glaciations in (i) promoting intraspecific genetic differentiation and (ii) influencing genetic diversity was tested within a phylogeographic framework using the rodent microtus oeconomus. the spatial focus for the ... | 2004 | 14653795 |
