DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-81568-y
Abstract: Intraspecific diet specialization, usually driven by resource availability, competition and predation, is common in natural populations. However, the role of parasites on diet specialization of their hosts has rarely been studied. Eye flukes can impair… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-07672-9
Abstract: Quality and quantity of food items consumed has a crucial effect on phenotypes. In addition to direct effects mediated by nutrient resources, an individual’s diet can also affect the phenotype indirectly by altering its gut… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17518369.2017.1409585
Abstract: ABSTRACT Colonial seabirds from neighbouring breeding aggregations may share foraging grounds or utilize different areas in order to decrease the competition over food resources. In our study, we present the meso-scale variations in the diet… read more here.
