Anthropogenic stressors are causing fundamental changes in aquatic habitats and to the
organisms inhabiting these ecosystems. Yet, we are still far from understanding the diverse …

Parasite-induced modification of host behavior increasing transmission to a next host is a
common phenomenon. However, field-based studies are rare, and the role of environmental …

Understanding variations in host-parasite relationships with urbanization is vital for both,
public health management and conservation of endemic animals with high anthropogenic …

Although the outcome of parasitic infections can be explained by a combination of
environmental and host/parasite genetic factors, these factors are often confounded by …

Trematodes localizing in the lenses of fish change the behavior of their hosts. These
behavioral changes are widely suggested to be parasitic manipulations of host behavior …

We report on the first systematic characterisation of a tuneable laser-driven electron source
capable of delivering Gy-scale doses in a duration of 10-20 ps, thus reaching …

Parasites with complex life cycles are known to induce phenotypic changes in their
intermediate hosts to increase transmission to the final host. The magnitude of these …

Parasites can alter a wide range of host behaviors resulting in changes in organismal
interactions and ecosystem processes. One of the most important behaviors that controls …

Numerous freshwater acanthocephalans are able to alter the behaviour of their intermediate
hosts to increase their predation risk by final hosts, thereby enhancing trophic transmission …

Many trophically transmitted parasites with complex life cycles manipulate their intermediate
host's antipredatory defenses in ways facilitating their transmission to final host by predation …
