Hunting for Helminths: short- and long-read shotgun metagenomics for parasite detection in faecal samples

Katie O’Brien, Ajay Elamaran, Mehmet Dayı, Georgia Keeling, William Nevin, Yuchen Liu, Mark Viney, Kieran Reynolds, Charmaine Bishop, Banchob Sripa, Menebere Woubshete, Pâmela Sachs Nique, Rhiannon Wright, Jane L. Younger, Vicky L. Hunt

This study validates shotgun metagenomics for detecting soil-transmitted helminths in faecal samples, finding mitochondrial sequence mapping as the most accurate method, with short-read sequencing outperforming long-read.

A population genetic analysis of the nematode Strongyloides stercoralis in Asia shows that human infection is not a zoonosis from dogs.

Yuchen Liu, A. H. M. Raihan Sarker, Banchob Sripa, Sirikachorn Tangkawattana, Virak Khieu, William Nevin, Steve Paterson, Mark Viney

The paper uses whole genome sequencing to show that human and dog-derived Strongyloides stercoralis are genetically distinct, with rare cross-infection events, suggesting the parasite originated in dogs and began infecting humans after domestication.
