Coupling between tolerance and resistance differs between related Eimeria parasite species

A. Balard, V. H. Jarquin-Diaz, J. Jost, V. Mittne, F. Boehning, L. Dureje, J. Pialek, E. Heitlinger

The paper examines the relationship between resistance and tolerance in mice infected with two Eimeria species, finding a negative correlation for one species and no correlation for the other.

Detection and quantification of house mouse Eimeria at the species level - challenges and solutions for the assessment of Coccidia in wildlife

V. H. Jarquin-Diaz, A. Balard, J. Jost, J. Kraft, M. N. Dikmen, J. Kvicerova, E. Heitlinger

The paper develops methods to detect and quantify Eimeria species in house mice, finding higher prevalence of E. falciformis and E. ferrisi in dense populations.

Generalist Eimeria species in rodents: multilocus analyses indicate inadequate resolution of established markers

V. H. Jarquin-Diaz, A. Balard, A. Macova, J. Jost, T. Roth von Szepesbela, K. Berktold, S. Tank, J. Kvicerova, E. Heitlinger

The paper investigates whether molecular markers like COI and 18S accurately classify Eimeria species in rodents, finding insufficient resolution and suggesting the need for multilocus genotyping.

Intensity of infection with intracellular Eimeria spp. and pinworms is reduced in hybrid mice compared to parental subspecies

A. Balard, V. H. Jarquin-Diaz, J. Jost, I. Martincova, L. Dureje, J. Pialek, M. Macholan, J. Goüy de Bellocq, S. J. E. Baird, E. Heitlinger

The study finds reduced parasite intensity in hybrid mice compared to parental subspecies for Eimeria and pinworms, but no evidence of lower infection probability or health impacts.

Eimeria falciformis BayerHaberkorn1970 and novel wild derived isolates from house mice: differences in parasite lifecycle, pathogenicity and host immune reactions

E. Al-khlifeh, A. Balard, V. H. Jarquin-Diaz, A. Weyrich, G. Wibbelt, E. Heitlinger

This study compares a laboratory isolate of Eimeria falciformis with two wild-derived isolates, finding differences in lifecycle progression, pathogenicity, and host immune responses.
