Food-Borne Parasitic Zoonoses: Fish and Plant-Borne Parasites (World Class Parasites)
With >4,000 biomedical journals currently available, and more being added seemingly every month, one of the most overwhelming and daunting tasks for any health professional is to stay current with the literature. A welcomed lifeline has been the World Class Parasites series of publications that have made this challenge much easier to manage. The latest text (Volume 11), Food-Borne Parasitic Zoo...
متن کاملCarbohydrate Metabolism in Higher Plant Tissues Infected With Obligate Parasites.
Several reports (7, 8, 22) have described apparently fundamental changes in the rates and nature of respiratory pathways during infection of higher planit tissues by obligate parasites, particularly rust fungi. Although disease can cause increases of 400 % in rates with a marked lowering of C6/C1 ratios, there is considerable uncertainty about the carbohydrate changes which accompany the respir...
متن کاملHost plant species affects virulence in monarch butterfly parasites.
1. Studies have considered how intrinsic host and parasite properties determine parasite virulence, but have largely ignored the role of extrinsic ecological factors in its expression. 2. We studied how parasite genotype and host plant species interact to determine virulence of the protozoan parasite Ophryocystis elektroscirrha (McLaughlin & Myers 1970) in the monarch butterfly Danaus plexippus...
متن کاملConventional Therapy and Promising Plant-Derived Compounds Against Trypanosomatid Parasites
Leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis are two neglected and potentially lethal diseases that affect mostly the poor and marginal populations of developing countries around the world and consequently have an important impact on public health. Clinical manifestations such as cutaneous, mucocutaneous, and visceral disorders are the most frequent forms of leishmaniasis, a group of diseases caused by se...
متن کاملPlant-like traits associated with metabolism of Trypanosoma parasites.
Trypanosomatid parasites cause serious diseases among humans, livestock, and plants. They belong to the order of the Kinetoplastida and form, together with the Euglenida, the phylum Euglenozoa. Euglenoid algae possess plastids capable of photosynthesis, but plastids are unknown in trypanosomatids. Here we present molecular evidence that trypanosomatids possessed a plastid at some point in their...
