Candidate Gene Approach for Parasite Resistance in Sheep – Variation in Immune Pathway Genes and Association with Fecal Egg Count
(Plos One, 2014-02-12)Sheep chromosome 3 (Oar3) has the largest number of QTLs reported to be significantly associated with resistance to gastro-intestinal nematodes. This study aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within ... -
Development of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and a direct LAMP for the specific detection of Nosema ceranae, a parasite of honey bees
(Springer, 2020-10)Nosema ceranae is a ubiquitous microsporidian pathogen infecting the midgut of honey bees. The infection causes bee nosemosis, a disease associated with malnutrition, dysentery, and lethargic behavior, and results in ... -
Development of a PCR assay for identification of Neobalantidium coli (Pomajbíková et al., 2013) in Argentina
(2017-12)Neobalantidium coli (Pomajbíková et al., 2013) is a cosmopolitan ciliate which colonizes the intestine of humans and animals. Pigs are the most important host and reservoir for this parasite, although others mammals have ... -

Molecular identification of Sarcocystis aucheniae as the macrocyst-forming parasite of llamas
(2013-12)The domestic South American camelids (SACs), llama (Lama glama) and alpaca (Lama paco), are frequently found to be infected with Sarcocystis parasites. Infections give rise in skeletal muscle to macroscopic cysts (1–5 mm ... -
Morphological and molecular evidence for a new species of Pseudanisakis Layman & Borovkova, 1926 (Nematoda: Ascaridida), parasitizing Rajiformes in southern Southwest Atlantic waters
(2017-07)Pseudanisakis argentinensis n. sp. is proposed to accommodate parasitic nematodes found in six skate species (Rajidae and Arhynchobatidae) examined from southern Southwest Atlantic waters. The new species differs from its ... -
Next-generation technologies and systems biology for the design of novel vaccines against apicomplexan parasites
(Frontiers Media, 2022-01)Parasites of the phylum Apicomplexa are the causative agents of important diseases such as malaria, toxoplasmosis or cryptosporidiosis in humans, and babesiosis and coccidiosis in animals. Whereas the first human recombinant ... -
