The Journal of Parasitology is a peer-reviewed medical journal covering research on parasites published bimonthly by Allen Press on behalf of the American Society of Parasitologists. Content includes research articles, brief research notes, announcements of the society, and book reviews. It was founded and edited by Henry Baldwin Ward in 1914. [1]
When comparing host sister clades we tend to find taxonomically richer parasite fauna on the taxonomically richer group of hosts. Eichler's rule is one of several coevolutionary rules which states that parasites tend to be highly specific to their hosts, and thus it seems reasonable to expect a positive co-variation between the taxonomic richness of hosts and that of their parasites.
Parasitology is the study of parasites, their hosts, and the relationship between them. As a biological discipline , the scope of parasitology is not determined by the organism or environment in question but by their way of life.
Parasitology Research, formerly known as Zeitschrift für Parasitenkunde (German for Journal for Parasite Study) is a journal founded by Albrecht Hase (born March 16, 1882, died November 20, 1962), a German entomologist and parasitologist. From its inception in 1928 until 1961, he was co-publisher and editor-in-chief of the journal.
Quantitative parasitology deals with measures to quantify parasite loads in samples of hosts and to make statistical comparisons of parasitism across host samples. In evolutionary biology, parasite load has important implications for sexual selection and the evolution of sex, as well as openness to experience. [1] High parasite load.
Stothard is the co-editor of two peer-reviewed scientific journals, Advances in Parasitology and Parasitology [3] and a regular reviewer for a range of other peer-reviewed scientific journals. Between 2004 and 2010 he was elected as honorary scientific secretary and executive board member at the Royal Society for Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. [21]
Dehydration is used to inactivate helminth ova in fecal sludge. This type of inactivation occurs when feces is stored between 1-2 years, a high total solids content (>50-60%) is present, items such as leaves, lime, earth, etc. are added, and at a temperature of 30°C or higher. [45]
