| molecules, morphology and morphometrics of cainocreadium labracis and cainocreadium dentecis n. sp. (digenea: opecoelidae) parasitic in marine fishes. | molecular, morphological and morphometric analyses were conducted on several samples of cainocreadium labracis (opecoelidae), a trematode parasitic in marine teleosts. the samples were isolated from several specimens of dicentrarchus labrax, the type host, and dentex dentex. the molecular analysis of complete internal transcribed spacer sequences of ribosomal dna revealed that specimens isolated from each host species form two well-defined groups, whose sequence divergence reaches 7.5%. the morp ... | 2001 | 11336752 |
| trematode maturation patterns in a migratory snail host: what happens during upshore residency in a mediterranean lagoon? | maturation of trematode larval stages is expected to be temporally and spatially adapted to maximise the encounter with the adequate downstream host, i.e. the host, which will be infected by this parasite stage. since studies on intramolluscan parasite maturation are scarce but important in the context of parasite transmission, the larval development inside sporocysts was monitored during upshore residency of the snail host gibbula adansonii (trochidae), i.e., from march to may (2011 and 2013), ... | 2016 | 26446090 |
| same host, same lagoon, different transmission pathways: effects of exogenous factors on larval emergence in two marine digenean parasites. | due to their shallow and confined nature, lagoons provide excellent conditions for the transmission of digenean trematode parasites that require two or more intermediate hosts for the completion of their complex life cycles. however, these unstable environments are characterised by an internal heterogeneity and a large variation of a range of abiotic variables. we conducted a series of experiments in a comparative framework to assess the effect of a number of exogenous factors known to exhibit m ... | 2014 | 24271151 |
| molecular and morphological identification of larval opecoelids (digenea: opecoelidae) parasitising prosobranch snails in a western mediterranean lagoon. | in a study of the digeneans parasitising molluscs in the els alfacs lagoon (ebro delta, western mediterranean) we found heavy infections with sporocysts emitting two types of cotylocercous cercariae in the prosobranch trochid gastropod gibbula adansonii and with metacercariae in the prosobranch nassariid gastropod cyclope neritea. a comparative analysis using its ribosomal dna sequences from these larval stages and published sequences of 17 larval and adult opecoelid stages allowed us to elucida ... | 2012 | 22446012 |
