Abstract:
ABSTRACT Recent evidence suggests that deep-sea vestimentiferan tube worms acquire their endosymbiotic bacteria from the environment each generation; thus, free-living symbionts should exist. Here, free-living tube worm symbiont phylotypes were detected in vent seawater and in biofilms at multiple deep-sea vent habitats by PCR amplification, DNA sequence analysis, and fluorescence in situ hybridization. These findings support environmental transmission as a means of symbiont acquisition for deep-sea tube worms.

Abstract:
Free-living nematodes may harbor, protect, and disperse bacteria, including those ingested and passed in viable form in feces. These nematodes are potential vectors for human pathogens and may play a role in foodborne diseases associated with fruits and vegetables eaten raw. In this study, we evaluated the associations between a free-living soil nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Escherichia coli, an avirulent strain of Salmonella Typhimurium, Listeria welshimeri, and Bacillus cereus. On an agar medium, young adult worms quickly moved toward colonies of all four bacteria; over 90% of 3-day-

Abstract:
Advances in high-throughput and high-content imaging technologies require concomitant development of analytical software capable of handling large datasets and generating relevant phenotypic measurements. Several tools have been developed to analyze drug response phenotypes in parasitic and free-living worms, but these are siloed and often limited to specific instrumentation, worm species, and single phenotypes. No unified tool exists to analyze diverse high-content phenotypic imaging data of worms and provide a platform for future extensibility. We have developed wrmXpress, a unified framewor

Abstract:
Abstract Nematode worms are the most abundant multicellular organism on Earth. They thrive in every habitat known, and they are voracious feeders within the top 70 cm of soils. Their sturdy cuticle protects them from environmental factors and predators. Nematodes play a significant role in the decomposition of vertebrate remains in soil and serve as indicators of nutrients that enter soils during decomposition. Certain parasitic nematodes have been identified in fossil remains, but reports of fossil worms are rare. We demonstrate the abundant presence of opportunistic nematodes feeding within

Abstract:
SUMMARYParasitic lifestyles evolved many times independently. Just within the phylum Nematoda animal parasitism must have arisen at least four times. Switching to a parasitic lifestyle is expected to lead to changes in various life history traits including reproductive strategies. Parasitic nematode worms of the genus Strongyloides represent an interesting example to study these processes because they are still capable of forming facultative free-living generations in between parasitic ones. The parasitic generation consists of females only, which reproduce parthenogenetically. The sex in the

Chapter 5 is devoted to the dynamism of self-limitation (ziwo kanxian 自我坎陷) of the moral self—that is, a paradoxical dynamism of entanglement that produces an ontological bifurcation between the moral self and cognitive self. From the viewpoint of the self, the question is how knowing, limited egos, scattered through the multiplicity of our brains and intentionally related to an exterior world, can be produced by an all-embracing and inexhaustible moral self, and ultimately contribute to its full realization.

It is estimated that 20% of immigrants from endemic countries may have helminthic infections at their arrival to the UK. These people could be asymptomatic, but tend to present with unexplained symptoms, especially gastrointestinal in nature or eosinophilia.

Every species of bird that has been studied carefully has been shown to be a host for at least one, and often several, species of parasites.
