Anguillicola (Anguillicoides) crassus: Morphometric characteristics and pathogenicity in eels (Anguilla anguilla) in Greece
(2021)Anguillicola (Anguillicoides) crassus is a swimbladder nematode parasite of Anguilla anguilla (Linnaeus, 1758). The present study investigates the morphology and pathogenicity of A. crassus in European eel, as well as, the ... -
Bioaugmentation of animal feces as a mean to mitigate environmental contamination with anthelmintic benzimidazoles
(2021)Anthelmintics are used to control infestations of ruminants by gastrointestinal nematodes. The limited metabolism of anthelmintics in animals result in their excretion in feces. These could be piled up in the floor of ... -
Biodegradation of anthelmintics in soils: does prior exposure of soils to anthelmintics accelerate their dissipation?
(2022)Anthelmintics (AHs) control animal infections with gastrointestinal nematodes. They reach soil through animal faeces deposited on soils or through manuring. Although soil constitutes a major AH sink, we know little about ... -
Challenges in developing methods for quantifying the effects of weather and climate on water-associated diseases: A systematic review
(2017)Infectious diseases attributable to unsafe water supply, sanitation and hygiene (e.g. Cholera, Leptospirosis, Giardiasis) remain an important cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in low-income countries. Climate ... -
Changes in food intake and circulating leptin due to gastrointestinal parasitism in lambs of two breeds
(2008)HA reduction in food intake is a prominent feature of many infectious diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms of parasite-induced anorexia in sheep are poorly understood. Here, we tested the hypotheses (a) that the ... -
Contribution to the parasites and associated pathology of wild Serranidae from the Aegean Sea
(2017)Parasites and associated pathology of wild caught Serranidae in the Aegean Sea were investigated in order to contribute to the scientific information regarding pathological findings of these fish. Various lesions and ... -
Development of resistance to eprinomectin in gastrointestinal nematodes in a goat herd with pre-existing resistance to benzimidazoles
(2019)We described a first case of resistance to eprinomectin in goat herd in Poland in which resistance to benzimidazoles had been previously reported. The herd was established in 2011 by purchasing several goats from a single ... -
DIANA-mirExTra v2.0: Uncovering microRNAs and transcription factors with crucial roles in NGS expression data
(2016)Differential expression analysis (DEA) is one of the main instruments utilized for revealing molecular mechanisms in pathological and physiological conditions. DIANA-mirExTra v2.0 (http://www.microrna. gr/mirextrav2) ... -
Genetic growth potential interacts with nutrition on the ability of mice to cope with Heligmosomoides bakeri infection
(2009)Artificial selection for improved productivity may reduce an animal's ability to cope with pathogens. Here, we used Roslin mice, uniquely divergently selected for high (ROH) and low (ROL) body weight, to assess interactive ... -
Greenhouse biofumigation with Melia azedarach controls Meloidogyne spp. and enhances soil biological activity
(2018)The need for environmentally friendly agricultural practices has led to the development of plant-based nematicides for root-knot nematode control. The efficacy of these botanicals has been tested primarily under laboratory ... -
Haemonchosis: A challenging parasitic infection of sheep and goats
(2021)The paper reviews the challenges about haemonchosis—a significant and common parasitic infection of small ruminants. Haemonchus contortus is a highly pathogenic parasite that localises in the abomasum of affected animals ... -
Healthspan improvement and anti-aggregation effects induced by a marine-derived structural proteasome activator
(2022)Proteasome activation has been shown to promote cellular and organismal healthspan and to protect against aggregation-related conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Various natural compounds have been described for ... -
Immunomodulatory effects of dietary protein during Nippostrongylus brasiliensis re-infection in lactating rats
(2009)Periparturient relaxation of immunity (PPRI) to secondary infection with nematodes is believed to have a nutritional basis due to differential partitioning of scarce nutrient resources, particularly protein, to reproductive ... -
Parasites of Scyliorhinus canicula (Linnaeus, 1758) in the north-eastern Aegean Sea
(2018)The parasitic fauna of the small-spotted catshark, Scyliorhinus canicula in the north-eastern Aegean Sea was investigated. Twenty-one out of the 52 (prevalence 40.4%) specimens collected were found infected with parasites; ... -
Response of local and commercial tomato cultivars and rootstocks to Meloidogyne javanica infestation
(2011)Fifty two local Greek tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cultivars and accessions and ten commercial nematode-resistant tomato cultivars and rootstocks were evaluated under controlled environmental conditions for resistance ... -
Sex-specific impact of inbreeding on pathogen load in the striped dolphin
(2020)The impact of inbreeding on fitness has been widely studied and provides consequential inference about adaptive potential and the impact on survival for reduced and fragmented natural populations. Correlations between ... -
Strong synergistic activity and egg hatch inhibition by (E,E)-2,4-decadienal and (E)-2-decenal in Meloidogyne species
(2016)Recent research has been focused on the potential of plant natural products for the control of nematodes, but few studies are reported on synergistic interactions and egg hatch inhibition properties of botanicals. Herein, ... -
Thelazia lacrymalis in horses from Romania: epidemiology, morphology and phylogenetic analysis
(2022)Background: Equine thelaziosis is a neglected vector-borne parasitic disease in modern veterinary medicine, lacking recent reports. It is transmitted by Musca autumnalis, and potentially other Muscidae species, by ingesting ... -
The use of entomopathogenic nematodes in the control of stored-product insects
(2017)This review highlights the latest findings regarding the use of entomopathogenic nematodes against post-harvest insects. Due to their requirements for moisture, entomopathogenic nematodes had received, until lately, limited ...
