This study identifies an extracellular Argonaute protein from a parasitic nematode that can be internalized by mouse cells and shows it can be targeted for vaccine development.

The paper compares the genetic diversity of Theileria annulata in cattle and water buffalo in Pakistan, finding higher diversity in cattle-derived populations.

The paper introduces a metabarcoded DNA sequencing method for detecting Plasmodium species in human malaria patients, showing improved diagnostic performance compared to an immunochromatographic assay.

The paper develops a deep amplicon sequencing method to quantify piroplasm species proportions in co-infections and introduces the concept of a 'haemoprotobiome'.

The paper develops a high-throughput method to determine anthelmintic resistance allele frequencies in gastrointestinal nematodes using Illumina Mi-seq sequencing.
