Genotypic variation among lineages of Trypanosoma cruzi and its geographic aspects

Isozyme analysis with 18 enzyme loci was conducted on 146 isolates of Trypanosoma cruzi from Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and Chile. Forty-four different MLGs (groups of isolates with identical multilocus genotypes) were identified and a phylogeny was constructed. The phylogenetic tree consisted of two main groups (T. cruzi I, T. cruzi II), and the latter was further divided into two subgroups (T. cruzi IIa, T. cruzi IIb–e). Evidence of hybridization between different MLGs of T. cruzi II was found, which means that genetic exchanges seem to have occurred in South American T. cruzi. On the other hand, the persistence of characteristic T. cruzi I and T. cruzi II isozyme patterns in single small villages in Bolivia and Guatemala suggested that genetic exchange is very rare between major lineages. A significant difference in genetic diversity was shown between T. cruzi I and T. cruzi II from several indices of population genetics. Two possibilities could explain this genetic variation in the population: differences in evolutionary history and/or different tendencies to exchange genetic material. Broad-scale geographic distributions of T. cruzi I and T. cruzi IIb–e were different; T. cruzi I occurred in Central America and south to Bolivia and Brazil, while T. cruzi IIb–e occurred in the central and southern areas of South America, overlapping with T. cruzi I in Brazil and Bolivia.     

Nouvelles données sur les estérases des trichogrammes (hym. trichogrammatidae)

New electrophoretic analysis allowed us to show that the two fastest esterases of T. brassicae are derived from the Est 5′ locus and not from the Est 5 and Est 6 locus. This result changes only slightly the evanescens group place in the phylogenetic tree previously suggested. Esterases have been studied in several other species. Those of T. lacustre and T. piceum are not against the classification of these species in the perkinsi and fasciatum groups, respectively. Those of T. leptoparameron lead us to place this species in the pretiosum group, near T. daumalae. Those of a population of T. dendrolimi reveal a polymorphism clearly higher than what was known in bisexual forms of this species. Lastly, esterases analysed by other authors tend to show that T. chilonis and T. closterae belong to the nubilale group (the appellation of which has to be changed) and that T. ostriniae belongs to the minutum group.     

Crossed immunoelectrophoretic analyses of antigens from Trypanosoma lewisi and Trypanosoma musculi

Trypanosoma lewisi and Trypanosoma musculi were collected from immunosuppressed infected hosts and extracted with phosphate buffered saline. Antisera were obtained from rats repeatedly infected with T. lewisi or mice repeatedly infected with T. musculi. Cellular antigens (CAg) present in the extracts of the parasites were analyzed by microimmunodiffusion (MID), crossed immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) and tandem crossed immunoelectrophoresis (TCIE). Trypanosome extracts were absorbed with the heterologous hyperimmune antisera to examine shared and unique antigens of the parasites.

Extracts of T. lewisi formed four precipitin lines when reacted with hyperimmune rat antiserum and three precipitin lines were detected by mouse anti-T. musculi serum in MID analyses. T. musculi extract formed two precipitin lines with mouse hyperimmune serum and two precipitin lines with rat anti-T. lewisi serum in the MID tests. When T. lewisi was reacted with the homologous hyperimmune rat antiserum in CIE, 14 precipitin peaks developed, while T. musculi extract formed eight peaks with homologous mouse hyperimmune serum. Seven precipitin peaks developed when T. lewisi extract was reacted with the mouse antiserum and T. musculi extract formed eight peaks during its electrophoretic migration into rat anti-T lewisi serum. TCIE clearly showed that five T. lewisi CAg could not be detected in the T. musculi extract by the rat antiserum, while mouse anti-T. musculi serum formed six precipitin peaks with the T. lewisi extract and seven peaks with the homologous extract. One of the CAg present in the T. musculi extract was not found in the T. lewisi extract. Absorptions of the extracts with heterologous antisera and subsequent CIE against the homologous antisera indicated three of the CAg of T. lewisi were not shared by T. musculi, while a single antigen of T. musculi was not detected in T. lewisi. Although concentrations of antibodies in each of the antisera and CAg in the parasite extracts were not equivalent, the data indicated that a minimum of eight CAg are shared by these rodent trypanosomes and at least three antigens appeared to be unique to T. lewisi and a single antigen to T. musculi.

The genetic analysis of F1 hybrid larvae between female Trichinella spiralis and male Trichinella britovi

Hybrids between female Trichinella spiralis and male Trichinella britovi were constructed. Then, hybrid genotype was characterized by DNA markers including mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (CO I) gene, the gene encoding the 43-kDa excretory–secretory (ES) protein, and genomic DNA fragments specific for T. spiralis and T. britovi identified from random amplified polymorphism DNA (RAPD). PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis of the mitochondrial CO I gene revealed that all hybrids carried a T. spiralis pattern. The same analysis of the gene encoding the 43-kDa ES protein showed that each hybrid carried both T. spiralis and T. britovi gene type simultaneously. In the analysis of genomic DNA using RAPD-derived PCR primers, some hybrids carried T. spiralis and T. britovi-specific RAPD markers, while others carried the RAPD marker of T. spiralis only.     

Trichinella zimbabwensis n.sp. (Nematoda), a new non-encapsulated species from crocodiles (Crocodylus niloticus) in Zimbabwe also infecting mammals

Since 1995, Trichinella larvae have been detected in 39.5% of farmed crocodiles (Crocodylus niloticus) in Zimbabwe. Morphological, biological, biochemical and molecular studies carried out on one isolate from a farmed crocodile in 2001 support the conclusion that this parasite belongs to a new species, which has been named Trichinella zimbabwensis n.sp. This species, whose larvae are non-encapsulated in host muscles, infects both reptiles and mammals. The morphology of adults and larvae is similar to that of Trichinella papuae. Adults of T. zimbabwensis cross in both directions with adults of T. papuae (i.e. male of T. zimbabwensis per female of T. papuae and male of T. papuae per female of T. zimbabwensis), producing F1 offspring which produce very few and less viable F2 larvae. Muscle larvae of T. zimbabwensis, like those of T. papuae, do not infect birds. Three allozymes (of a total of 10) are diagnostic between T. zimbabwensis and T. papuae, and five are diagnostic between T. zimbabwensis and Trichinella pseudospiralis, the third non-encapsulated species. The percentage of the pairwise alignment identity between T. zimbabwensis and the other Trichinella species for the cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene, the large subunit ribosomal-DNA (mt-lsrDNA) gene and the expansion segment five, shows that T. zimbabwensis is more similar to the two non-encapsulated species T. papuae (91% for cytochrome oxidase I; 96% for mt-lsrDNA; and 88% for expansion segment five) and T. pseudospiralis (88% for cytochrome oxidase I; 90% for mt-lsrDNA; and 66–73% for expansion segment five) than to any of the encapsulated species (85–86% for cytochrome oxidase I; 88–89% for mt-lsrDNA; and 71–79% for expansion segment five). This is the first non-encapsulated species discovered in Africa. The finding of a new Trichinella species that infects both reptiles and mammals suggests that the origin of Trichinella parasites dates back further than previously believed and can contribute to understanding the phylogeny and the epidemiology of the genus Trichinella.     

NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences compared for members of the genus Taenia (Cestoda)

Nine members of the genus Taenia (Taenia taeniaeformis, Taenia hydatigena, Taenia pisiformis, Taenia ovis, Taenia multiceps, Taenia serialis, Taenia saginata, Taenia solium and the Asian Taenia) were characterised by their mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 gene sequences and their genetic relationships were compared with those derived from the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequence data. The extent of inter-taxon sequence difference in NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (5.9–30.8%) was usually greater than in cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (2.5–18%). Although topology of the phenograms derived from NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequence data differed, there was concordance in that T. multiceps, T. serialis (of canids), T. saginata and the Asian Taenia (of humans) were genetically most similar, and those four members were genetically more similar to T. ovis and T. solium than they were to T. hydatigena and T. pisiformis (of canids) or T. taeniaeformis (of cats). The NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 sequence data may prove useful in studies of the systematics and population genetic structure of the Taeniidae.     

Seroprevalence of equine babesiosis in the Black Sea region of Turkey

The prevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi was determined in equid blood samples in five provinces of the Black Sea region of Turkey by using the indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT). Of 153 samples, 53 (34.6%) and 33 (21.5%) were seropositive to B. caballi and T. equi, respectively. In addition, 8 (5.2%) of samples were seropositive to both T. equi and B. caballi. Anti T. equi and B. caballi antibodies were detected in all five regions. The prevalence of B. caballi was higher than T. equi in all counties. Antibodies to T. equi and B. caballi were detected in horses of all ages, and there were no significant differences among age groups. Out of 84 horses, 32 (38.0%) were positive for B. caballi infection and 20 (23.8%) were positive for T. equi infection. Five horses (5.6%) were found to be seropositive to both B. caballi and T. equi. Of 38 donkeys, 14 (36.8%) were found to be positive for B. caballi infection and 5 (13.1%) positive for T. equi infection. In addition, 2 (5.2%) samples were seropositive for both T. equi and B. caballi infections. Out of 31 mules, 8 (25.8%) were positive for B. caballi infection and 8 (25 8%) positive for T. equi infection. One (3.2%) sample was seropositive for both T. equi and B. caballi infections. Of all the animals in this study, only 3 horses were infected by Rhipicephalus turanicus and Hyalomma detritum, and no haemoparasites were detected by microscopic examination.

Plastome phylogenomic analysis of Torreya (Taxaceae)

Torreya Arn., a small genus of Taxaceae, consists of six species occurring in North America and eastern Asia. Several phylogenetic studies have previously been undertaken to reveal relationships within this genus, although only a few DNA segments or species were used. In the present study, we sequenced five Torreya plastomes and combined these with two existing plastomes from the genus to investigate plastome evolution and phylogenetic relationships within Torreya. All sequenced Torreya plastomes shared the same complement of 82 protein‐coding genes, 4 ribosomal RNA genes, and 31 transfer RNA genes. Phylogenetic inference using a maximum likelihood framework consisted of an 82‐gene, 17‐taxon dataset, including all species of Torreya, resolved Torreya as a monophyletic clade. Strongly supported relationships within the genus include the position of the early diverging T. jackii Chun, the two sister pairs T. fargesii Franch.–T. nucifera (L.) Siebold & Zucc. and T. grandis Fortune ex Lindl.–T. californica Torr., and the monophyly of the clade including T. fargesii var. yunnanensis, T. fargesii, and T. nucifera. In addition to the inference of species relationships, divergence time estimation and biogeographical analysis were carried out. The diversification of Torreya was estimated to be approximately 8.9 Ma. Ancestral state reconstruction of the geographical area suggested China/eastern North America as the most likely ancestral region for the six extant Torreya species.
