Multigene and genomic data sets have become commonplace in the field of phylogenetics,
but many existing tools are not designed for such data sets, which often makes the analysis …

Simple Summary Species richness in open water areas is generally lower than in coastal
zones. Fish parasites have been targeted as biological tags potentially magnifying biological …

 Abstract Research on complete mitochondrial genomes can help in understanding the
molecular evolution and phylogenetic relationships of various species. In this study, the …

We sequenced the mitogenomes of Astictopterus jama, Isoteinon lamprospilus and
Notocrypta curvifascia to obtain further insight into the mitogenomic architecture evolution …

Recent mitogenomic studies have exposed a gene order (GO) shared by two classes, four
orders and 31 species ('common GO') within the flatworm subphylum Neodermata. There …

Discussion The present study describes a new mitogenome of a monogenean species
based on genomic sequencing of both genomic DNA and cDNA. This assembly-based …

Despite the highly divergent morphology, pathogenicity and worldwide distribution of
digenean parasites belonging to one of the largest families, the Plagiorchiidae, there are no …

There are more than 350 species of amphipods (Crustacea) in Lake Baikal, which have
emerged predominantly through the course of endemic radiation. This group represents a …

Abstract Background The Dicrocoeliidae are digenetic trematodes mostly parasitic in the bile
ducts and gall bladder of various avian and mammalian hosts. Until recently their …

Abstract Background Diplozoidae are monogenean (Monogenea: Polyopisthocotylea) fish
parasites characterised by a unique life history: two larvae permanently fuse into an X …
