Chromosome-level genome sequencing and assembly of the parasitoid wasp Leptopilina myrica by Zhi Dong, Zixuan Xu, Junwei Zhang, Yulong Guo, Qichao Zhang, Lan Pang, Ting Feng, Wenqi Shi, Yifeng Sheng, Jianhua Huang, Jiani Chen

“…This high-quality genome will provide a foundation for future research on the genetic and functional traits of parasitoid wasps, shedding light on the evolutionary dynamics of host-parasite interactions. The genome of L. myrica provides a valuable resource for future studies on host-parasite interactions and the genetic basis of parasitoid wasp biology.…”

IgM against Merozoite Surface Protein 1-Block 2 Haplotypes as New Tools for Plasmodium vivax Infections by Fernanda de Almeida Batalha, Elizangela Farias da Silva, Paula Taquita Serra, Rafaella Oliveira dos Santos, Zeca Manuel Salimo, Yury de Oliveira Chaves, Mirian Ívens Fagundes, Paulo Emílio Feuser, Victor Costa de Souza, Felipe Gomes Naveca, Ricardo A. Machado de Ávila, Paulo Afonso Nogueira

“…We evaluated seroprevalence against sets of specific peptides to the block 2 region of Plasmodium vivax-merozoite surface protein-1 (PvMSP1) to detect parasite clones. Methods: We applied amplicon deep sequencing (ADS) of block 2 region of the MSP-1 gene (pvmsp1) to determine cocirculating parasite clones within eight P. vivax-infected individuals. …”

Interaction of Schistosoma mansoni Sporocysts and Hemocytes of Biomphalaria by D. Negrão-Corrêa, A. C. A. Mattos, C. A. J. Pereira, R. L. Martins-Souza, P. M. Z. Coelho

“…The compatibility between S. mansoni and its intermediate host is influenced by behavioral, physiological, and genetical factors of the mollusc and the parasite. The susceptibility level of the mollusc has been attributed to the capacity of internal defense system (IDS)—hemocytes and soluble components of the hemolymph—to recognize and destroy the parasite, and this will be the center of interest of this paper. …”
