Parasite co-structure: broad and local scale approachesC D Criscione
Department of Genetics, Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research P O Box 760549, San Antonio, Texas 78245 0549, USA
Parasite 15:439-43. 2008..Subjects that can be addressed with parasite costructure studies range from broad-scale analyses that compare phylogeographical patterns to local scale analyses that examine among host transmission within a host population...
Genomic linkage map of the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoniCharles D Criscione
Department of Biology, Texas A and M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA
Genome Biol 10:R71. 2009..mansoni's molecular, quantitative, and population genetics. Our goal was to construct a genetic linkage map for S. mansoni, and thus provide a new resource that will help stimulate research on this neglected pathogen...
Landscape genetics reveals focal transmission of a human macroparasiteCharles D Criscione
Department of Biology, Texas A and M University, College Station, Texas, United States of America
PLoS Negl Trop Dis 4:e665. 2010..Similar landscape genetic approaches in other macroparasite systems will be warranted if an accurate depiction of the transmission process is to be used to inform effective control strategies...
More than meets the eye: detecting cryptic microgeographic population structure in a parasite with a complex life cycleCharles D Criscione
Department of Biology, Texas A and M University, 3258 TAMU, College Station, TX 77843, USA
Mol Ecol 20:2510-24. 2011..In general, the methods we employ will be useful for elucidating hidden patterns in other organisms where cryptic structure may be common (e.g. those with limited morphology or complex life histories)...
A comparison between mitochondrial DNA and the ribosomal internal transcribed regions in prospecting for cryptic species of platyhelminth parasitesR Vilas
Department of Zoology, Oregon State University, 3029 Cordley Hall, Corvallis, OR 97331, USA
Parasitology 131:839-46. 2005..Although potential limitations of mtDNA are also recognized, the higher rate of evolution and smaller effective population size of this marker increases the probability of detecting diagnostic characters between cryptic species...
