| genetic characterization of echinostoma revolutum and echinoparyphium recurvatum (trematoda: echinostomatidae) in thailand and phylogenetic relationships with other isolates inferred by its1 sequence. | echinostomatidae are common, widely distributed intestinal parasites causing significant disease in both animals and humans worldwide. in spite of their importance, the taxonomy of these echinostomes is still controversial. the taxonomic status of two species, echinostoma revolutum and echinoparyphium recurvatum, which commonly infect poultry and other birds, as well as human, is problematical. previous phylogenetic analyses of southeast asian strains indicate that these species cluster as siste ... | 2010 | 21120529 |
| field evidence for a parasite spillback caused by exotic mollusc dreissena polymorpha in an invaded lake. | this study provides field evidence in support of the "parasite spillback hypothesis" that predicts a positive numerical response of native parasites to the presence of an exotic host that is competing for these parasites with native hosts. we examined the role that the exotic mollusc dreissena polymorpha (zebra mussel) plays as the second intermediate host of the echinostomatid trematode echinoparyphium recurvatum in lake naroch, belarus. we found that due likely to the disproportionately high a ... | 2010 | 20107837 |
