[HTML][HTML] Ecoimmunity in Darwin's Finches: Invasive Parasites Trigger Acquired Immunity in the Medium Ground Finch (Geospiza fortis)
Background Invasive parasites are a major threat to island populations of animals. Darwin's
finches of the Galápagos Islands are under attack by introduced pox virus (Poxvirus avium) …

Experimental demonstration of a parasite‐induced immune response in wild birds: D arwin's finches and introduced nest flies
Ecological immunology aims to explain variation among hosts in the strength and efficacy of
immunological defenses. However, a shortcoming has been the failure to link host immune …

Immunological investments reflect parasite abundance in island populations of Darwin's finches
KM Lindström, J Foufopoulos… - Proceedings of the …, 2004 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The evolution of parasite resistance can be influenced by the abundance of parasites in the
environment. However, it is yet unresolved whether vertebrates change their investment in …

Galápagos mockingbirds tolerate introduced parasites that affect Darwin's finches
Introduced parasites threaten native host species that lack effective defenses. Such
parasites increase the risk of extinction, particularly in small host populations like those on …

Effect of introduced parasites on the survival and microbiota of nestling cactus finches (Geospiza scandens) in the Galápagos Islands
Introduced parasites and pathogens have colonized the Galápagos Islands of Ecuador. For
example, a parasitic nest fly, Philornis downsi, was introduced to the Galápagos and has …

Relationships among introduced parasites, host defenses, and gut microbiota of Galapagos birds
SA Knutie - Ecosphere, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Parasites can cause significant damage to their hosts. Hosts can reduce the damage that
parasites cause by either resisting parasites (eg, with an immune response) or tolerating …
