• Evidence from the resurrected family Polyrhabdinidae Kamm, 1922 (Apicomplexa: Gregarinomorpha) supports the epimerite, an attachment organelle, as a major eugregarine innovation.

  Authors:Gita G. Paskerova, Tatiana S. Miroliubova, Andrea Valigurová, Jan Janouskovec, Magdaléna Kováciková, Andrei Diakin, et al.From:PeerJ (Vol. 9) Peer-Reviewed

  Sept. 16, 202112,926 words Article 1340LBackground Gregarines are a major group of apicomplexan parasites of invertebrates. The gregarine classification is largely incomplete because it relies primarily on light microscopy, while electron microscopy and...

• Henricia spp. (Echinodermata: Asteroidea: Echinasteridae) of the White Sea: morphology, morphometry, and synonymy

  Authors:Olga A. Bratova and Gita G. PaskerovaFrom:Canadian Journal of Zoology (Vol. 96, Issue 4) Peer-Reviewed

  Apr. 20188,126 words Report 1070LThough sea stars of the genus Henricia Gray, 1840 are widely used in biological studies, their species diversity in the Arctic is poorly understood. We conducted a taxonomic revision of the genus Henricia from the White...

• Motility in blastogregarines (Apicomplexa): Native and drug-induced organisation of Siedleckia nematoides cytoskeletal elements

  Authors:Andrea Valigurova, Nadezda Vaskovicova, Andrei Diakin, Gita G. Paskerova, Timur G. Simdyanov, and Magdalena KovacikovaFrom:PLoS ONE (Vol. 12, Issue 6) Peer-Reviewed

  June 22, 201712,950 words Article 1450LRecent studies on motility of Apicomplexa concur with the so-called glideosome concept applied for apicomplexan zoites, describing a unique mechanism of substrate-dependent gliding motility facilitated by a conserved...

• Protococcidian Eleutheroschizon duboscqi, an Unusual Apicomplexan Interconnecting Gregarines and Cryptosporidia

  Authors:Andrea Valigurova, Gita G. Paskerova, Andrei Diakin, Magdalena Kovacikova, and Timur G. SimdyanovFrom:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 4) Peer-Reviewed

  Apr. 27, 201513,732 words Article 1480LThis study focused on the attachment strategy, cell structure and the host-parasite interactions of the protococcidian Eleutheroschizon duboscqi, parasitising the polychaete Scoloplos armiger. The attached trophozoites...

• Apicomplexan-like parasites are polyphyletic and widely but selectively dependent on cryptic plastid organelles

  Authors:Jan Janouskovec, Gita G Paskerova, Tatiana S Miroliubova, Kirill V Mikhailov, Thomas Birley, Vladimir V Aleoshin, et al.From:eLife (Vol. 8) Peer-Reviewed

  Aug. 16, 201915,986 words Report 1450LThe phylum Apicomplexa comprises human pathogens such as Plasmodium but is also an under-explored hotspot of evolutionary diversity central to understanding the origins of parasitism and non-photosynthetic plastids. We...
