Life cycle abbreviation in trematode parasites and the developmental time hypothesis: is the clock ticking?
The typical multi-host life cycle of many parasites, although conferring several advantages, presents the parasites with a highly hazardous transmission route. As a consequence, parasites have evolved various adaptations increasing their chances of transmission between the different hosts of the life cycle. Some trematode species like the opecoelid Coitocaecum parvum have adopted a more drastic...
متن کاملLife cycle abbreviation in the trematode Coitocaecum parvum: can parasites adjust to variable conditions?
The complex life cycles of parasites are thought to have evolved from simple one-host cycles by incorporating new hosts. Nevertheless, complex developmental routes present parasites with a sequence of highly unlikely transmission events in order to complete their life cycles. Some trematodes like Coitocaecum parvum use facultative life cycle abbreviation to counter the odds of trophic transmiss...
متن کاملThe Clock Is Ticking
THE CLOCK IS TICKING on my last year as editor in chief. It’s now either a bit over two months into 2014 (as I write this) or just under halfway through (by the time you read this), so this is an opportune time to revisit goals and priorities while there’s still time for corrective action. Managing IEEE Software for the past three years has been a fun and fascinating endeavor, in no small part ...
متن کاملThe Clock Is Ticking: Countdown to Metastases
Metastases cause more than 90% of the morbidity and mortality associated with human cancers. Gene expression signatures associated with cancer progression and metastasis serve as unique tools to assist in patient diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Various types of signatures have been identified, ranging from those that are tumor-intrinsic or specific to a particular cancer subtype [1] to gen...
