Morphological vs. molecular identification of trematode species infecting the e...
Stout, Leslie; Daffe, Guillemine; Chambouvet, Aurélie; Correia, Simão; Culloty, Sarah; Freitas, Rosa; Iglesias, David; Jensen, K. ThomasIdentifying marine trematode parasites in host tissue can be complicated when there is limited morphological differentiation between species infecting the same host species. This poses a challenge for regular surveys of the parasite communities in species of socio-economic and ecological importance. Our study focused on identifying digenean trematode species infecting the marine bivalve Cerastoderma edule acros...
Effects of cockle density and environmental background in the structure of free...
Ashja Ardalan, Aria; Correia, Simão; Soares, Amadeu M.V.M.; Freitas, Rosa; Magalhães, LuísaBiotic and abiotic factors can play an important role in the parasite community. The likelihood of successful parasite transmission rises with host density. At the same time, high host density can provide a dilution effect that lessens the host’s individual burden. In this study, the effects of cockle (Cerastoderma edule) density and environmental factors in the structure of free-living and parasitic communitie...
Trematode genetic patterns at host individual and population scales provide ins...
Correia, Simão; Fernández-Boo, Sergio; Magalhães, Luísa; de Montaudouin, Xavier; Daffe, Guillemine; Poulin, Robert; Vera, ManuelMultiple parasites can infect a single host, creating a dynamic environment where each parasite must compete over host resources. Such interactions can cause greater harm to the host than single infections and can also have negative consequences for the parasites themselves. In their first intermediate hosts, trematodes multiply asexually and can eventually reach up to 20% of the host's biomass. In most species...
On the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in spaces of infinite mass and low regula...
Barros, Vanessa; Correia, Simão; Oliveira, FilipeWe study the nonlinear Schrödinger equation [vg. equation] … After showing that the linear Schrödinger group is well-defined in this space, we prove local well-posedness in the whole range of parameters s and p. The precise properties of the solution depend on the relation between the power of the nonlinearity and the integrability p. Finally, we present a global existence result for the defocusing cubic equati...

Large scale patterns of trematode parasites communities infecting Cerastoderma ...
Correia, Simão; Magalhães, Luísa; Freitas, Rosa; Bazairi, Hocein; Gam, Meriam; Montaudouin, Xavier deIn this study, spatial sampling was performed from north Portugal to south Morocco to analyse trematode communities of the widespread bivalve Cerastoderma edule, host of several trematode species. From the twelve trematode species found in this study, nine were present in multiple aquatic systems demonstrating high trematode dispersal ability, driven by the presence of all hosts. Multivariate analysis related t...
Bioaccumulation and biochemical patterns of Ruditapes philippinarum clams: resp...
Costa, Silvana; Lopes, Joel; Coppola, Francesca; Correia, Simão; Henriques, Bruno; Leite, Carla; Soares, Amadeu M.V.M.; Zengjie, Jiang; Pereira, EduardaShellfish farming and shellfish harvesting have been practiced for a long time in the Ria de Aveiro coastal lagoon (Portugal). Among commercial bivalves, Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum represents one of the most important species inhabiting this coastal system. Introduced in Portugal in 1984, naturalised R. philippinarum clam populations have been subjected to several pressures that may threaten this resou...
