Rezak Drali,Laurent Abi-Rached,Amina Boutellis,Félix Djossou,Stephen C. Barker,Didier Raoult +5 more
TL;DR: Investigating the possibility that P. mjobergi was transmitted to monkeys from the first humans who set foot on the American continent thousands of years ago indicates that human lice have transferred to New World monkeys.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cableia pudica n sp (Digenea:acanthocolpidae) from monacanthid fishes of the Southern Great Barrier Reef, Australia
TL;DR: The great majority of specimens lack spermatozoa, suggesting that parthenogenesis may occur, and it is placed, pro tern, in the Acanthocolpidae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Taxonomic review of the Heterodoxus octoseriatus group (Phthiraptera: Boopiidae) from rock-wallabies with the description of three new species
TL;DR: The morphology of the male genitalia and the internal genital sclerite of the female is described for species of the Heterodoxus octoseriatus group and homologous sclerites and spines, required for phylogenetic analyses, are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precise annotation of human, chimpanzee, rhesus macaque and mouse mitochondrial genomes leads to insight into mitochondrial transcription in mammals
Xiufeng Jin,Zhi Cheng,Bo Wang,Tung On Yau,Ze Chen,Stephen C. Barker,Defu Chen,Wenjun Bu,Daqing Sun,Shan Gao +9 more
TL;DR: A novel model of mt transcription is proposed which can account for the mt transcription and its regulation in mammals and points to the existence of many other, as yet unidentified, Transcription Termination Sites in mammals.
Book ChapterDOI
