Abundant variation in microsatellites of the parasitic nematode Trichostrongylus tenuis and linkage to a tandem repeat.
An understanding of how genes move between and within populations of parasitic nematodes is important in combating the evolution and spread of anthelmintic resistance. Much has been learned by studying mitochondrial DNA markers, but autosomal markers such as microsatellites have been applied to only a few nematode species, despite their many advantages for studying gene flow in eukaryotes. Here...
متن کاملStrategies for nematode transmission: selective migration of Trichostrongylus tenuis infective larvae.
Successful transmission of macroparasites is dependent on exposure of susceptible hosts to free-living infective stages. When these hosts are herbivores that feed mostly on a single food plant then natural selection should favour those infective larvae that selectively ascend this main food plant. Red grouse feed predominantly on heather, Calluna vulgaris, so we predict that the infective larva...

متن کاملCold tolerance mechanisms of the free-living stages of Trichostrongylus colubriformis (Nematoda).
1. All free-living stages of the nematode parasite of sheep, Trichostrongylus colubriformis Giles, survived exposure to freezing temperatures in contact with water, with the exception of the first-stage juvenile (J1). The third-stage juvenile (J3) was the most resistant stage. The order of relative survival of the different stages was different from that of the lowest F50 (the temperature at wh...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of the translation teacher competency test and the scale of students’ perceptions of translation teachers
the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...
