Patterns of host–parasite associations in tropical lice and their passerine hosts in Cameroon

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6386

Abstract: Abstract Coevolutionary processes that drive the patterns of host–parasite associations can be deduced through congruence analysis of their phylogenies. Feather lice and their avian hosts have previously been used as typical model systems for congruence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.70098

Abstract: Facultative anadromous salmonids may alter migratory behavior to mitigate against detrimental infections of aquaculture‐derived salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis); however, this likely incurs negative growth and fitness consequences. This flexibility in migratory behavior also creates analytical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.5595

Abstract: BACKGROUND Sea lice infestations on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farms are a considerable burden on the industry and put wild salmonid populations at risk. Frequent delousing treatments are necessary to keep lice densities below allowable… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00436-017-5396-z

Abstract: Lice have been parasitizing humans for at least 10,000 years. Since then, humans have tried to rid themselves of these unpleasant and potentially disease-carrying insects. Despite various plant extracts and chemical compounds being used to combat… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.aquaculture.2019.04.022

Abstract: Abstract Caligus elongatus is a generalist sea louse infesting a wide range of wild and farmed fish in the North Atlantic. Like its relatives Lepeophtheirus salmonis and Caligus rogercresseyi, C. elongatus is a well known… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpara.2016.12.003

Abstract: Host-parasite coevolutionary histories can differ among multiple groups of parasites associated with the same group of hosts. For example, parasitic wing and body lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) of New World pigeons and doves (Aves: Columbidae) differ… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijppaw.2020.11.004

Abstract: Few studies have provided information on parasitological indexes or other ecological characteristics of lice populations that parasitize small mammals in the Neotropical region. We used lice parasitizing a rodent species, Trinomys iheringi, as a study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jksus.2021.101451

Abstract: Abstract Objectives Little studies had been done on chewing lice of marine birds in the Middle East. Through this work, parasitic chewing lice of Brown Booby Sula leucogaster (Boddaert) in the Red Sea were recorded… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rsma.2017.11.013

Abstract: Abstract The consultation of various mussel farmer websites nowadays highlights a fundamental contradiction: mussels are presented as a natural food even if they are a cultivated. Farmers say that this mollusk feeds and grows in… read more here.
