Description[edit]
A. dasyhelei are found in the midgut of the host larva as 70 μm by 20 μm forms, running parallel to the host body. They are unique from other Gregarine parasites in that their cysts are elongated, rather than spherical.[1]
Taxonomy[edit]
A. dasyhelei is the only species in the genus Allantocystis. Allantocystis is the only genus in the family Allantocistidae.[2]
History[edit]
A. dasyhelei was described by D. Keilin in 1920 from larval biting midges he found in the decomposing sap of infected Elm and Horse-chestnut trees in Cambridge.[1]

Full-time equivalent From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigation Jump to search Full-time equivalent ( FTE ) or whole time equivalent ( WTE ) is a unit that indicates the workload of an employed person (or student) in a way that makes workloads or class loads comparable [1] across various contexts. FTE is often used to measure a worker's or student's involvement in a project, or to track cost reductions in an organization. An FTE of 1.0 is equivalent to a full-time worker or student, while an FTE of 0.5 signals half of a full work or school load.
