Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia intestinalis, and Enterocytozoon bieneusi in Captive Non-Human Primates in Qinling Mountains

Non-human primates (NHPs) are confirmed as reservoirs of Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia intestinalis, and Enterocytozoon bieneusi. In this study, 197 fresh fecal samples from 8 NHP species in Qinling Mountains, northwestern China, were collected and examined using multilocus sequence typing (MLST) method. The results showed that 35 (17.8%) samples were positive for tested parasites, including Cr...

Molecular epidemiology of Blastocystis sp. isolates in Bandar Abbas, South of Iran

Background and Objective: Blastocystis sp. is an anaerobic, single-celled intestinal parasite with global prevalence that is found in the lower digestive tract of humans and many animals, such as numerous types of vertebrates. To date, 17 genotypes have been identified. Nine of these genotypes are common in humans. Organism is found in both healthy and compromised individuals, hence its pathoge...

Wild food plants and wild edible fungi in two valleys of the Qinling Mountains (Shaanxi, central China)

BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to investigate knowledge and use of wild food plants in two mountain valleys separated by Mount Taibai--the highest peak of northern China and one of its biodiversity hotspots, each adjacent to species-rich temperate forest vegetation. METHODS Seventy two free lists were collected among the inhabitants of two mountain valleys (36 in each). All the studied h...
