The Tangled Web We Weave THE TANGLED WEB WE WEAVE HUMAN-MEDIATED SPREAD OF INVASIVE SPECIES VIA TRADE NETWORKS USING NEMATODES AS MODEL ORGANISMS Natalie Clare Banks B.A., B.Sc. Australian National University This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University October 2016 i DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research (except where other sources are acknowledged) and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. This research was conducted under the following Human Ethics Permit numbers: 2013/005 and 2013/158. The original research for this thesis was conducted and authored by myself with the assistance of co-authors in regard to fieldwork (Dr Tangchitsomkid, Dr Hodda, Mr Chanmalee, Ms Sangsawang, Ms Songvilay, Ms Phannamvong, and Mr Thamakhot) and intellectual contributions to chapter drafts (Drs Bayliss, Paini and Hodda). Natalie Banks A NOTE ON CONTENT This PhD thesis comprises a published research paper (Chapter 1 published in Ecology Letters, February 2015) and chapters prepared as papers for publication (Chapter 4 submitted to Biological Invasions, October 2016). These are presented with chapter summaries in the introduction and a general discussion that links the chapters into a coherent and integrated body of research. References and in-text citations have been formatted for consistency. ii ABSTRACT Human trade networks play a major role in the unintended introduction of invasive species to new environments. Network Science has shown that the structural properties of networks influence the movement of goods as well as their associated organisms. This thesis examines how the properties of one type of network, the plant produce trade network, aid the movement of one group of potentially invasive organisms, nematodes. The presence, diversity, abundance and dispersal of nematodes via these networks and points critical to the flow of goods as well as nematodes, were also examined. A survey of markets and farms was conducted in three countries (Australia, Thailand and Lao PDR) and nematodes were extracted from the roots of vegetable produce sampled at each location. Plant-parasitic nematodes were identified to genus and numbers of free-living nematodes recorded. Network analysis software was then used to generate and analyse maps of the trade, nematode and plant-parasitic nematode movement networks in each country. A large range and number of free- living and plant-parasitic nematodes were detected moving locally, nationally and internationally via plant produce trade networks. All networks were broadly similar, containing hubs and shortcuts and were directed, poorly clustered and disassortative networks. The movement of nematodes followed the same structural pattern as the larger trade network, meaning that goods and nematodes moved through these networks in a particular and predictable way. Certain critical points in each network were at greater risk of an incursion or of spreading nematodes and may, therefore, represent effective places to target intervention strategies. This thesis synthesises and applies insights and tools from Network Science to Invasion Science theory and practice. By untangling the role of networks in the invasion process, scientists and managers are in a better position to prepare, predict and prevent the spread of invasive species. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS

Active surveillance is required, therefore a cross-sectional surveyed was conducted in Nong Bunnak sub-district of Nakhon Ratchasima province, Thailand. A total of 367 participants were selected by multistage sampling from 5 villages located near natural water resources. Participants completed a predesigned questionnaire containing behavior questions regarding liver fluke disease, covering reliability and validity knowledge (Kuder-Richardon-20) = 0.80, attitude and practice (Cronbach’s alpha coefficient) = 0.82 and 0.79, respectively. Descriptive statistics included frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations. The majority of the participants were female (58.3%), age group between 21-30 years old (42.5%), with primary school education (59.9%), occupation in agriculture (38.1%), and married (80.9%). They had past histories of raw fish consumption (88.3%), stool examination (1.4%), anti-parasite medication used (4.6%). Heads of villages, village health volunteers, television, and village newstations were the main sources for disease information. Participants had a moderate level of behavior regarding liver fluke disease. The mean scored of knowledge regarding liver fluke life cycle, transmission, severities, treatment, prevention and control was 10.9 (SD=0.5), most of them had a moderate level, 95.1%.

    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2012.13.10.5245 Opisthorchis viverrini Infection in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Northeast Thailand RESEARCH ARTICLE Prevalence of Opisthorchis viverrini Infection in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Northeast Thailand Soraya J Kaewpitoon1,2*, Ratana Rujirakul1, Natthawut Kaewpitoon1,2 Abstract Background: Opisthorchis viverrini infection is a serious public-health problem in Southeast Asia especially in Lao PDR and Thailand. It is associated with a number of hepatobiliary diseases and the evidence strongly indicates that liver fluke infection is the major etiology of cholangiocarcinoma.Objectives: This study aimed to determine actual levels of Opisthorchis viverrini infection in Nakhon Ratchasima province, Northeast Thailand. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted during a one year period from October 2010 to September 2011. O. viverrini infection was determined using a modified Kato’s thick smear technique and socio-demographic data were collected using predesigned semi-structured questionnaires. Results: A total of 1,168 stool samples were obtained from 516 males and 652 females, aged 5-90 years. Stool examination showed that 2.48% were infected with O. viverrini. Males were slightly more likely to be infected than females, but the different was not statistically significant. O. viverrini infection was most frequent in the 51-60 year age group and was found to be positively associated with education and occupation. Positive results were evident in 16 of 32 districts, the highest prevalence being found in Non Daeng with 16.7%, followed by Pra Thai with 11.1%, Kaeng Sanam Nang with 8.33%, and Lam Ta Men Chai (8.33%) districts.
