Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ijppaw.2020.06.002
Abstract: Ontogenetic dietary shifts are common in fish and often impact trophically transmitted parasite communities. How parasite species composition and relative abundances change among size classes, and at what rate these changes occur, is rarely examined.… read more here.

Metazoan parasite communities of the Pacific red snapper, Lutjanus peru (Perciformes: Lutjanidae): interannual variations in parasite communities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Helminthology"
DOI: 10.1017/s0022149x22000335
Abstract: Abstract Metazoan parasite communities can experience temporal structural changes related to seasonal and/or local variations in several biotic and abiotic environmental factors. However, few studies have addressed this issue in tropical regions, where changes in… read more here.

Parasite communities in English Sole (Parophrys vetulus) have changed in composition but not richness in the Salish Sea, Washington, USA since 1930

DOI: 10.1017/s0031182022000233
Abstract: Abstract Abstract Earth is rapidly losing free-living species. Is the same true for parasitic species? To reveal temporal trends in biodiversity, historical data are needed, but often such data do not exist for parasites. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0031182022001597
Abstract: Abstract Abstract Understanding the combined effects of multi-parasite infections on their hosts is necessary for documenting parasite impacts and is particularly important for developing effective management strategies for economically important organisms. The white shrimp Penaeus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-69628-1
Abstract: Host biological factors and habitat influence the faunal assemblages and biodiversity worldwide, including parasite communities of vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. The ecological relationship between hosts and parasites can be mediated by interaction of host’s biological… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jfb.15311
Abstract: Parasites are important, diverse, and abundant components of natural ecosystems, and can influence the behaviour and health of their hosts, inter- and intra-specific interactions, and ultimately community structure. Coral reefs are one of the world's… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fevo.2019.00069
Abstract: How multitrophic relationships between wildlife communities and their ectoparasitic vectors interact to shape the diversity of vector-borne microorganisms is poorly understood. Nested levels of dependence among microbes, vectors, and vertebrate hosts may have complicated effects… read more here.
