The amphibian parasite Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is regarded as an extreme generalist, infecting over 500 species, but amongst these hosts there exists a great deal of variation in the susceptibility to and the costs of parasite exposure. We use two infection experiments to determine whether inter-specific variation in the sublethal and lethal effects of parasite exposure exist in two...
The genetic diversity of Plasmodium falciparum (P falciparum) infections in humans is implicated in the pathogenesis of malaria. This study provides the first estimate of the genetic diversity and genotype multiplicity of Plasmodium falciparum infection in children with uncomplicated P falciparum malaria in Osogbo, Nigeria. One hundred and one isolates were used for analysis of parasite populat...
The feral Soay sheep (Ovis aries L.) population on Hirta, St Kilda, is host to a diverse component parasite community, but previous parasitological studies of the population have only focussed on the metazoan species. This paper reports the first epidemiological study of the protozoan species comprising Cryptosporidium parvum, Giardia duodenalis and 11 species of Eimeria in Soay sheep across 3 ...
Interactions among different parasite species within hosts can be important factors shaping the evolution of parasite and host populations. Within snail hosts, antagonistic interactions among trematode species, such as competition and predation, can influence parasite abundance and diversity. In the present study we examined the strength of antagonistic interactions between 2 marine trematodes ...
Schistosoma mansoni is the most widespread of the human-infecting schistosomes, present in 54 countries, predominantly in Africa, but also in Madagascar, the Arabian Peninsula, and the Neotropics. Adult-stage parasites that infect humans are also occasionally recovered from baboons, rodents, and other mammals. Larval stages of the parasite are dependent upon certain species of freshwater snails...
The aim of this study was to compare the parasite communities in two sympatric host populations, Trachelyopterus coriaceus andTrachelyopterus galeatus, which were caught in tributary of the Amazon River in Brazil. All the specimens of T. galeatusand T. coriaceus were infected by one or more parasites, such as Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Tripartiella tetramerii, Trichodina nobilis, Cosmetoclei...
• Parasites are important components of ecosystems. There is scarce coverage wild primate parasites in Southeast Asia. We characterise gastrointestinal helminth assemblages a community Bornean primates. This study adds and provides new parasite records for primates the wild. Biodiversity baselines fundamental to monitor future changes biodiversity. ecosystems, influencing trophic networks, comp...
Evolutionary patterns of change are often linked to complex coupled responses associated to predator-prey, immune system-viruses or host–parasite interactions. Under some conditions, it has been postulated that the final outcome of such interactions are oscillatory patterns of genotypic and phenotypic change, generically labeled as Red Queen dynamics (RQD). In RQD, changes occur in a changing p...
Mixed-genotype infections have major consequences for many essential elements of host-parasite interactions. With genetic exchange between co-infecting parasite genotypes increased diversity among parasite offspring and the emergence of novel genotypes from infected hosts is possible. We here investigated mixed- genotype infections using the host, Bombus spp. and its trypanosome parasite Crithi...
