Should sex-ratio distorting parasites abandon horizontal transmission?Joseph E Ironside
Institute of Biological, Environmental and Rural Sciences, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, UK
BMC Evol Biol 11:370. 2011..However, recent empirical studies indicate that some sex-ratio distorting parasites have retained the capability for horizontal transmission...
Genomes and geography: genomic insights into the evolution and phylogeography of the genus SchistosomaScott P Lawton
The Institute of Biological, Environmental and Rural Sciences, Aberystwyth University, Penglais, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, SY23 3D, UK
Parasit Vectors 4:131. 2011..Here we examine how modern genomic techniques may give a more in depth understanding of the evolution of schistosomes and highlight the complexity of speciation and divergence in this group...
No amicable divorce? Challenging the notion that sexual antagonism drives sex chromosome evolutionJoseph E Ironside
Institute of Biological, Environmental and Rural Sciences, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, UK
Bioessays 32:718-26. 2010..Direct tests of the predictions of the sexual antagonism hypothesis offer only limited support in specific sex chromosome systems and circumstantial evidence remains open to interpretation...
Distribution and host range of the microsporidian Pleistophora mulleriJoseph E Ironside
Institute of Biological Sciences, Aberystwyth University, Ceredigion SY23 3DA, United Kingdom
J Eukaryot Microbiol 55:355-62. 2008..mulleri suggest that this species may be synonymous with P. typicalis, a parasite of fish. These findings suggest that amphipod crustaceans may act as intermediate or reservoir hosts for microsporidian parasites of fish...
Genetic diversity of the feminising microsporidian parasite Dictyocoela: new insights into host-specificity, sex and phylogeographyToby J Wilkinson
Institute of Biological, Environmental and Rural Sciences, Edward Llwyd Building, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion SY23 3DA, UK
Int J Parasitol 41:959-66. 2011..These findings suggest that Dictyocoela may be phenotypically, as well as genotypically, diverse, with the potential to exhibit a range of different interactions with its host populations...
Widespread vertical transmission and associated host sex-ratio distortion within the eukaryotic phylum MicrosporaRebecca S Terry
School of Biology, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK
Proc Biol Sci 271:1783-9. 2004..If the association observed here between VT and host sex-ratio distortion holds true across other host taxa, these eukaryotic parasites may join the bacterial endosymbionts in their importance as sex-ratio distorters...

Biology Department, Clark University, Worcester, MA 01610, USA
Mycol Res 111:509-47. 2007..Several genera of 'basal' Fungi of uncertain position are not placed in any higher taxa, including Basidiobolus, Caulochytrium, Olpidium, and Rozella...
