Aerobic respiratory pathways have been compared in adult parasitic nematodes, including Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Nippostrongylus brasiliensis, Ostertagia ostertagi, Cooperia oncophora, Haemonchus contortus, Oesophagostomum venulosum, Chabertia ovina, Dictyocaulus filaria, Dictyocaulus viviparus, and Ascaridia galli. Respiration was measured in both whole worm or tissue homogenates and isolated mitochondrial fractions, and delineated into the mammalian type or alternative respiratory pathways on the basis of their inhibition by antimycin A. The alternative, antimycin A-insensitive respiratory pathway was of comparable activity in all parasitic nematodes studied, irrespective of the body diameter or habitat of the worm. The mammalian-type, antimycin A-sensitive respiratory pathway showed variations; the extent of this pathway correlated with both the body diameter and habitat of the worm, being greater in thinner worms and those worms whose habitat is supposedly more aerobic.
