DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3452
Abstract: Parasite dilution occurs in varied systems, via multiple potential mechanisms. We used laboratory manipulation and field survey to test for invader-induced parasite dilution via two specific mechanisms: host-host competition and encounter reduction. In the laboratory,… read more here.
